The Cloudy Pass epizonal batholith and associated subvolcanic rocks
Fred W. Cater
1969, Book chapter, The Cloudy Pass epizonal batholith and associated subvolcanic rocks
The Cloudy Pass batholith, one of several small epizonal Tertiary batholiths in the Northern Cascade Mountains, discordantly intrudes metamorphic rocks of pre-Late Cretaceous age. The batholith is remarkable for its chilled borders, associated porphyry plugs, and intrusive breccias. The main body of the batholith consists largely of labradorite granodiorite.Part of...
Structural geology of the Quad-Wyoming-Line Creeks area, Beartooth Mountains, Montana
Lawrence C. Rowan
Leonard H. Larsen, Martin Prinz, Vincent Manson, editor(s)
1969, Book chapter, Igneous and Metamorphic Geology
The Quad-Wyoming-Line Creeks area is in the northeastern part of the Beartooth Mountains of Montana. The rocks of the area consist mainly of banded migmatite, granitic gneisses, amphibolite, quartzite, and agmatite; small amounts of biotite schist and biotite gneiss, iron-silicate rocks, ultramafic rocks, mafic dikes, and felsic porphyries are also...

Photogrammetry with surface-based images
Raymond M. Batson
1969, Applied Optics (8) 1315-1322
Stereoscopic pictures returned by surface-based imaging systems can be used to reconstruct the topography of landing sites on Mars and other planets. Large surface relief with respect to distance and the large scale variation inherent in surface-based pictures produce problems in stereoscopic measurement very different from those presented by high...
Chemical characteristics of Lake Ontario
Herbert E. Allen
1969, Technical Report 14
Records are presented of Na+, K+, Ca++, SiO2, pH, alkalinity, O2, and specific conductance at 106 stations in Lake Ontario. These data are compared for east-west and surface-subsurface variations. Water quality in Lake Ontario is similar to that in Lake Erie with the exception of dissolved oxygen. The open waters...
The benthic macrofauna of Lake Ontario
Jarl K. Hiltunen
1969, Technical Report 14
The presence and relative abundance of bottom macrofauna in Lake Ontario are documented. Bottom samples were collected at 24 stations in September 1964. The quantity of organisms and the distribution of some species were affected by depth of water. Samples from the shallower stations (47.5 m or less) yielded an...

Determination of traces of silver in waters by anion exchange and atomic absorption spectrophotometry
T. T. Chao, M. J. Fishman, J.W. Ball
1969, Analytica Chimica Acta (47) 189-195
A method has been developed for the accurate determination of 0.1–1 μg of silver per liter of water. The method permits stabilization of silver in water without loss to container walls. Optimum conditions have been established for the complete recovery of silver from water with an anion-exchange column, for quantitative...
Mallard hatching from an egg cracked by freezing
R. J. Greenwood
1969, The Auk (86) 752-754
The eggs of early-nesting waterfowl in North Dakota are frequently exposed to subfreezing temperatures. Mallards (Anas platyrhynchos) and Pintail (Anas acuta), normally the first ducks to arrive in the spring, begin limited early nesting in min-April. Nighttime temperatures during this period frequently drop below freezing, and late spring blizzards are...
The morphology and chronology of a landslide near Dillon Dam, Dillon, Colorado
E.E. Wahlstrom, T. C. Nichols Jr.
1969, Engineering Geology (3) 149-174
Investigations were made of a landslide at the Dillon Dam site, Dillon, Colo., that included detailed laboratory and field analyses of the mineralogy, chemistry, and physical properties of landslide materials and the bedrock formations from which they were derived. These investigations provide an understanding of the relative importance of various...
Computer-produced tables, maps, and diagrams as tools in the interpretation of brine data from southeastern Kansas (U.S.A.)
J.M. McNellis, C.O. Morgan, B.H. Lowell
1969, Chemical Geology (4) 303-324
The applicability of computer-oriented techniques to assist in the interpretation of brine data is demonstrated by the use of six programs on data from two example areas. These programs include a data tabling routine; routines for producing Stiff, Piper, and Ropes diagrams;...
Determination of rhenium in molybdenite by X-ray fluorescence. A combined chemical-spectrometric technique
M.W. Solt, J.S. Wahlberg, A.T. Myers
1969, Talanta (16) 37-43
Rhenium in molybdenite is separated from molybdenum by distillation of rhenium heptoxide from a perchloric-sulphuric acid mixture. It is concentrated by precipitation of the sulphide and then determined by X-ray fluorescence. From 3 to 1000 μg of rhenium can be measured with a precision generally within...
Extraction of vanadium into isobutyl methyl ketone
Hans J. Crump-Wiesner, W.C. Purdy
1969, Talanta (16) 124-129
Because of its advantages in atomic-absorption spectroscopy, isobutyl methyl ketone was chosen as organic solvent for an extraction study on vanadium. Of eight chelating agents which were evaluated for completeness of extraction, ease of use, working pH range, and freedom from interference, cupferron was judged best.<div...
A purple-colored 1M mica clay from Silverton, Colorado
Pei-Lin Tien
1969, Clays and Clay Minerals (17) 245-249
A purple-colored clay of 1M mica polymorph in association with lead-zinc ore was collected from an abandoned mine dump near Silverton, Colorado. Electron micrographs show that the crystallites of the clay are less than 2µ in size and have poorly developed hexagonal outlines. Differential thermal and i.r. absorption analyses indicate...
