Uranium-bearing copper deposits in the Coyote district, Mora County, New Mexico
H. D. Zeller, Elmer Harold Baltz
1954, Circular 334
Uranium-bearing copper deposits occur in steeply dipping beds of the Sangre de Cristo formation of Pennsylvanian and Permian(?) age south of Coyote, Mora County, N. Mex. Mapping and sampling of these deposits indicate that they are found in lenticular carbonaceous zones in shales and arkosic sandstones. Samples from these zones...
Geology of the Shinarump No. 1 uranium mine, Seven Mile Canyon area, Grand County, Utah
Warren Irvin Finch
1954, Circular 336
The geology of the Shinarump No. 1 uranium mine, located about 12 miles northwest of Moab, Utah, in the Seven Mile Canyon area, Grand County, Utah, was studied to determine the habits, ore controls, and possible origin of the deposit. Rocks of Permian, Triassic, and Jurassic age crop out in...
Reconnaissance for uranium-bearing carbonaceous rocks in California and adjacent parts of Oregon and Nevada
George Winfred Moore, James G. Stephens
1954, Circular 313
During the summer of 1952 a reconnaissance was conducted in California and parts of Oregon and Nevada in search of new deposits of uranium-bearing carbonaceous rocks. The principal localities found in California where uranium occurs in coal are listed here with. the uranium content of the coal: Newhall prospect, Los...

From April 22 to May 19, 1953, airborne radioactivity surveys totalling 5,600 traverse miles were made in 10 areas in Florida (Moxham, 1954). Abnormal radioactivity was recorded in Bradford, Clay, DeSoto, Dixie, Lake, Marion, Orange, Sumter, Taylor, and Union Counties, Florida. Additional airborne surveys were made in the Spring of...

Subsurface exploration in the Little Susitna district, Matanuska coal field, Alaska
Farrell F. Barnes, Daniel Sokol
1954, Open-File Report 55-7
Preliminary geologic mapping of the Little Susitna district in 1952 showed that an area of at least 140 square miles is underlain by coal-bearing rocks of Tertiary age, and indicated that coal beds of minable quality and thickness might be present at several localities. Detailed exploration with a bulldozer and...
