Geologic interpretation of seismic data relocation of Route 2, Shelburne Falls in Shelburne, Mass.
James E. May, Daniel Linehan
1950, Open-File Report 50-43-C
In June 1945 a seismic study was made for the projected Halligan Avenue out, stations 364-374, Route 2 relocation in Shelburne, Mass. Nine profiles were run at this time and a report on this work was submitted by James E. Maynard and Rev. Daniel Linehan (file report of July 1945)....

Preliminary examination of uranium deposits near Marysvale, Piute County, Utah
Harry C. Granger, Herman L. Bauer
1950, Trace Elements Memorandum 33
Autunite and other uranium minerals were discovered in 1948 by Pratt Seegmiller about 3 1/4 miles north of Marysvale, Piute County, Utah. Mining operations were begun in the summer of 1949 by the Vanadium Corporation of America on the Prospector and the Freedom claims, and by the Bullion Monarch Mining...
Fifth special report of the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory of the Hawaiian Volcano Research Association and the U.S. Geological Survey: Abrasion hardness
T. A. Jaggar
1950, Report
After reviewing the work of sclerometry, this paper shows that yielding and relative softness are the mechanical basis of what should be called malacometry. The experiments have been made with diamond drills, ring cuts, end millers and grinding wheels.Auerbach's "limited scope of the Mohs list" is quantitatively confirmed. The wear...
Geologic interpretation of seismic data relocation route 1: proposed cut at stations 127-135 in Danvers, Mass.
James E. May, Daniel Linehan
1950, Open-File Report 50-43-B
The layout for the reconstruction of the Newburyport Turnpike (Route 1) proposed cit at stations 127-135, in Danvers, Mass., shows a deep cut through the western end of a hill between stations 127 and 135. Because of the depth of this cut seismic work was done at the site in...
Distribution of leached radioactive material in the Legin Group Area, San Miguel County, Colorado
Allen S. Rogers
1950, Trace Elements Memorandum 171
Radioactivity anomalies, which are small in magnitude, and probably are not caused by extensions of known uranium-vanadium ore bodies, were detected during the gamma-ray logging of diamond-drill holes in the Legin group of claims, southwest San Miguel County, Colo. The positions of these anomalies are at the top surfaces of...
Field investigation of airborne radioactivity anomalies in Marquette County, Michigan
Harold L. James
1950, Trace Elements Memorandum 159
The broad radioactivity anomalies recorded by the airborne detector in the vicinity of Republic, Marquette County, Michigan, coincide rather closely with parts of a granitic complex chiefly of Archean age. Ground examination of the rock in these areas of high radioactivity shows that the granitic rock typically yields two to...
The Papsy's Hope autunite prospect, Marysvale District, Piute County, Utah
Edward P. Kaiser
1950, Trace Elements Memorandum 145
The Papsy's Hope autunite prospect is in the eastern part of the Marysvale district, Piute County, Utah, about 1 1/2 miles northeast of the mines now operating. It is developed by two shallow cuts and a short incline shaft. One cut exposes a zone of fractures, sparse quartz veins,...
Modification to Tracerlab Automatic Sample Changer
F.J. Flanegan, J. M. Nelson, J.J. Warr Jr.
1950, Trace Elements Memorandum 142
The U.S. Geological Survey has recently modified the Tracerlab Automatic Sample Changer so that the geometry is greatly improved for counting larger low-activity samples in finely ground form. The larger sample and larger Geiger Mueller tubes allow a greater number of samples to be counted per hour with the same...

Spectrographic analysis of coal and coal ash
R.G. Hunter, A.J.W. Headlee
1950, Analytical Chemistry (22) 441-445
Coal can be analyzed on the spectrograph for per cent ash and composition of ash in a matter of a few minutes, using the total energy method. The composition of the ash so determined can be used to calculate ash softening temperatures. This analysis can be made in sufficiently short...

The Driftwood anticline
William A. Fischer
1949, Geological Investigations, Naval Petroleum Reserve No. 4, Alaska 9
Recent interest in the anticlines near the headwaters of the Utukok River has prompted the issuance of two special reports. This, the first of the two reports, deals with the Driftwood anticlines, the second will consider the Awuna anticline and the western part of the Carbon Creek anticline.At present, only...

1949, Journal of the American Pharmaceutical Association, Scientific Edition (39) 197-202
In order to bridge the gap between preliminary screening of chemicals for potential rodent repellency and the application of these compounds to paper cartons, more advanced studies in the evaluation of promising materials have been carried out. These studies have resulted in: (1) a modification of the food acceptance technique...
