Quaternary geology of the Nenana River and adjacent parts of the Alaska Range, Alaska
Clyde Wahrhaftig
1953, Open-File Report 53-262
The Nenana River flows northward across the Alaska Range near 149° west longitude. Sedimentary bedrock formations of its basin include pre-Cambrian schist undifferentiated Paleozoic and Mesozoic rocks, continental upper Cretaceous rocks and poorly consolidated continental Tertiary rocks. Igneous rocks include pre Devonian quartz orthoclase schist, greenstone, granitic and basic intrusives...

The Robinson and Weatherly uraniferous pyrobitumen deposits near Placerville, San Miguel County, Colorado
V.R. Wilmarth, R.C. Vickers
1953, Open-File Report 53-273
Uranium deposits that contain uraniferous pyrobitumen of possible hydrothermal origin occur at the Weatherly and Robinson properties near Placerville, San Miguel County, Colo. These deposits were mined for copper, silver, and gold more than 50 years ago and were developed for uranium in 1950. The Robinson property, half a mile...

Results of reconnaissance for uraniferous coal, lignite, and carbonaceous shale in western Montana
William James Hail, James R. Gill
1953, Circular 251
A reconnaissance search for uraniferous lignite and carbonaceous shale was made in western Montana and adjacent parts of Idaho during the summer of 1951. Particular emphasis in the examination was placed on coal and carbonaceous shale associated with volcanic rocks, as volcanic rocks in many areas appear to have released...

Arthur Johnson, William Stephens Twenhofel
1953, Circular 280
Full development of a proposal to divert the headwaters of the Yukon River drainage from Canada into the Taiya River valley of Alaska would make available more than a half million kilowatts of electrical energy. Utilization of this block of power, for which there is at present no local market,...

Sedimentation in small reservoirs on the San Rafael Swell, Utah
Norman Julius King, Mervyn M. Mace
1953, Circular 256
Movement of sediment from upland areas and eventually into main drainages and rivers is by no means through continuous transportation of material from the source to the delta. Instead it consists of a series of intermittent erosional and depositional phases that present a pulsating movement. Hence, sediment carried off upland...
