Cross-section data for selected Puerto Rico streams
Eloy Colon-Dieppa, Ralph Gonzalez
1978, Open-File Report 78-882
The data presented in this report were originally collected for the purpose of delineating the inundation which could be expected by floods of selected magnitudes. As this study progressed, it became apparent that further analysis would be a duplication of effort as the United States Flood Insurance Administration was requiring...

Map showing anomalous tungsten and gold distribution in stream sediment concentrates, Hillsboro and San Lorenzo quadrangles exclusive of the Black Range Primitive Area, Sierra and Grant Counties, New Mexico
K. C. Watts, H. V. Alminas, J. M. Nishi, W.C. Crim
1978, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 900-I
This map shows the distribution of anomalous tungsten in the two sample fractions, magnetic (M-1) and nonmagnetic (NM-1) gold in the nonmagnetic (NM-1) fraction; these are plotted on a base which includes sample localities, topography, and generalized geology modified from Hedlund (1975a, b). It is part of a series of...

1978, Open-File Report 78-727
During the period from September 14 through October 10, 1977 the second U.S. Geological Survey geo-environmental cruise was conducted in lower Cook Inlet and on the Kodiak shelf and adjacent upper continental slope, Gulf of Alaska, aboard the R/V SEA SOUNDER (Figure 1, Tables 1, 2 and 3). The objective...
Map showing placer deposits of the Seward and Blying Sound quadrangles, Alaska
Russell G. Tysdal
1978, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 880-B
Placer gold was first recovered from stream gravels of the Seward quadrangle about 1850 by P.P. Doroshin, a mining engineer employed by the Russian-American Company. He obtained a few ounces of gold from gravels from two streams that flow into the Kenai River below Kenai Lake (Moffit, 1906, p. 8)....

Electron-microprobe study of chromitites associated with alpine ultramafic complexes and some genetic implications
M. L. Bird
1978, Open-File Report 78-119
Electron-microprobe and petrographic studies of alpine chromite deposits from around the world demonstrate that they are bimodal with respect to the chromic oxide content of their chromite. The two modes occur at 54 ? 4 and 37 ? 3 weight per cent chromic oxide corresponding to chromite designated as high-chromium...
