Some physical properties of naturally irradiated fluorite
Robert Berman
1955, Trace Elements Investigations 569
Five samples of purple fluorite found in association with radioactive, materials, and a synthetic colorless control sample were studied and compared.  Before and after heating, observations were made on specific gravity, index of refraction, unit-cell size, breadth of X-ray diffraction lines, and fluorescence.  The purple samples became colorless on heating...
Conglomeratic sandstone strata at the base of the Brushy Basin member of the Morrison formation as related to uranium-vanadium deposits, southwestern Colorado and southeastern Utah
David A. Phoenix
1955, Trace Elements Investigations 565
In southwestern Colorado and southeastern Utah strata of conglomeratic sandstone are localized at the base of the Brush Basin shale member of the Morrison formation of Jurassic age. These strata are discrete lithologic units that contain sedimentary structures oriented in a prevailing easterly direction, they locally rest upon sandstone in...
Geology of the Copper King uranium mine, Larimer County, Colorado
Paul Kibler Sims, George Phair, Robert Hadley Moench
1955, Trace Elements Investigations 424
The Copper King mine in Larimer County, Colo., in the northern part of the Front Range of Colorado, was opened in World War I in an unsuccessful attempt to mine copper and zinc ore. In 1949, following the discovery of pitchblende on the dump, the mine was reopened, and it...
Water-power resources in upper Carson River basin, California - Nevada
Harold L. Pumphrey
1955, Water Supply Paper 1329-A
West Fork Carson River offers the best opportunity for power development in the Carson River basin. The Hope Valley reservoir site could be developed to provide adequate storage regulation and concentration of fall would permit utilization of 1,400 feet of head in 51h miles below the clam site, or 1,900...
Stratigraphy of the area between Hernando and Hardee counties, Florida
Keith B. Ketner, Laurence J. McGreevy
1955, Trace Elements Investigations 524
Eocene, Oligocene, Miocene, and Recent rocks are exposed between Hernando and Hardee Counties. Eocene and Oligocene formations are fossiliferous limestones but Miocene rocks are largely unconsolidated sands and clays in which fossils are scarce. Correlation of Miocene strata therefore is necessarily based mainly on lithology and stratigraphic position. Where rocks are altered...
Water rights in areas of ground-water mining
Harold E. Thomas
1955, Circular 347
Ground-water mining, the progressive depletion of storage in a ground-water reservoir, has been going on for several years in some areas, chiefly in the Southwestern States. In some of these States a water right is based on ownership of land overlying the ground-water reservoir and does not depend upon putting...
Computations of total sediment discharge, Niobrara River near Cody, Nebraska
Bruce R. Colby, C. H. Hembree
1955, Water Supply Paper 1357
A natural chute in the Niobrara River near Cody, Nebr., constricts the flow of the river except at high stages to a narrow channel in which the turbulence is sufficient to suspend nearly the total sediment discharge. Because much of the flow originates in the sandhills area of Nebraska, the...
Ground-water program in Alabama
P.E. LaMoreaux
1955, Open-File Report 55-87
Several recent years of drought have emphasized the importance of Alabama's ground-water supplies, a matter of concern to us all.  So far we have been blessed in Alabama with ample ground-water, although a combination of increased use, waste, pollution, and drought has brought about critical local water shortages.  These problems...
