This report describes the results of study and geologic mapping (1:12,000) in the 70-square-mile Plumtree area in the northeastern part of the Spruce Pine pegmatite district, on the Blue Ridge upland in western North Carolina. The district has been the chief domestic source of feldspar and sheet mica. The mining...
Pre-Cambrian geology of the Norway Lake area, Dickinson County, Michigan
Lorin Delbert Clark
1953, Open-File Report 53-37
The Norway Lake area straddles the south margin of the Sagola basin, an embayment of Ruronian sedimentary rocks into the west side of a complex of crystalline and sedimentary rocks of pre-Ruronian age. The north part of the Norway Lake area is underlain by the Randville dolomite, an unnamed succession...
Measurement of earth pressures by means of the flat jack test
P. Habib, R. Marchand, Severine Britt (translator)
1953, Open-File Report 54-31
This study deals with the principle and application of a method of measuring the stresses around a rock gallery. The measuring principle consists of cutting a drain in a gallery wall, observing the corresponding stress lessening, then restoring the initial state of stress by means of a Freyssinet flat jack. The...

1953, Open-File Report 54-33
The worst enemy of construction engineering and of construction material is uncontrollable water, whether it be ground-, seepage-, rainwater, water of condensation, or melting snow and ice, exerting objectionable pressure upon tracks and roads. this applies as well to structures above the ground as to bridge piers and foundations, road...
Summary of annual records of chemical quality of water of the Arkansas River in Oklahoma and Arkansas, 1945-1952
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1953, Open-File Report 53-288
This report summarizes information collected to date in the Arkansas River Basin in Oklahoma and Arkansas, and shows, within the limitations of present information, the chemical quality of water in the Arkansas River downstream from the Oklahoma-Kansas State line to its junction with the Mississippi River, and the influence of...
Changes in chemical quality of the Arkansas River in Oklahoma and Arkansas (1946-52)
T.B. Dover, J.W. Geurin
1953, Open-File Report 53-289
Systematic chemical quality-of-water investigations have been carried on in both Oklahoma and Arkansas by the Geological Survey in cooperation with State and Federal agencies during the past several years. Results of the Survey's quality-of-water investigations are usually published in the annual Water-Supply Papers. However, as the Geological Survey has made...
Geologic map of Lake Valley manganese district, Sierra County, New Mexico
S.C. Creasey, A.E. Granger
1953, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 9
The Lake Valley district was originally developed as a manganese-silver district, but the known silver-bearing ore bodies have long since been worked out.  The critical shortage of manganese during World War II renewed interest in the manganese deposits; from October 1941 through June 1942 the U. S. Geological Survey and...
