Data tables containing results of nuetron activation analyses special chemistry, and emission spectra analyses made througout the hydrochemical and stream sediment reconnaissance of the Las Vegas quadrangle.

From abstract: This report presents the results of the geochemical reconnaissance sampling in the Prescott quadrangle of the National Topographic Map Series (NTMS). Wet and dry sediment samples were collected throughout the 18,770 square kilometer arid-to-semiarid area and water samples at available streams, springs, and wells.

From Introduction: The purpose of this report is to provide geologic and mineral resource background information useful in evaluating the uranium potential of the Raleigh 1* X 20 sheet.

From abstract: This report summarizes data of the uraniferous phosphate resources of the United States in detail and of the rest of the Free World more generally (Volume 1). It also evaluates the technical, economic, and environmental feasibility of production of uranium as a by-product, co-product, or single product from the uraniferous phosphate resources (Volume 2).

From abstract: Results of a reconnaissance geochemical survey of the Plainview Quadrangle, Texas are reported. Field and laboratory data are presented for 969 groundwater samples and 571 stream sediment samples. Statistical and areal distributions of uranium and other possible uranium related variables are displayed. A generalized geologic map of the survey area is provided, and pertinent geologic factors which may be of significance in evaluating the potential for uranium mineralization are briefly discussed.

Data collected as part of the hydrogeological and stream sediment reconnaissance for the Sherman NTMS quadrangle including laboratory data on well water and stream sediments as well as field data.

The U. S. Atomic Energy Commission conducted an airborne radioactivity survey of the Red River region of Texas and Oklahoma beginning in December 1955 and ending in May 1956. All or parts of Archer, Clay, and Montague Counties in northern Texas and Carter, Cotton, Jefferson, and Stephens Counties in southern Oklahoma were surveyed. Particular attention was paid to those areas where exposures are found of red beds of the Permian Wichita Group. Field examinations were conducted of anomalies discovered by airborne reconnaissance as well as those reported by private individuals. Forty localities were examined, the majority in sandstones, siltstones, or conglomerates. Uranium and copper minerals were identified at several localities. Ferruginous staining, bleaching of the sandstone color, calcium carbonate cement, and carbonized plant remains are common to the deposits

From summary: The procedure has been to search for areas in which nonpedogenic calcrete or gypcrete may have developed and where additional study or exploration might be justified.

This is the first volume of a two-part report on the analyses of the airborne gamma radiation and total magnetic field survey flown for the region identified as the Tooele National Topographic Map NK-12-10. This volume gives the description of the program and results.

"CER Geonuclear has developed, in cooperation with the Atomic Energy Commission, a set of detailed plans utilizing nuclear explosives for an underground engineering experiment called project Rio Blanco. The overall objective is to prove the commercial feasibility of using nuclear explosives to recover commercial quantities of tightly held natural gas in the Piceance Basin."

This book presents reconnaissance reports for uranium deposits in Mohave County, Arizona from 1952 to 1956.

Report on ecological investigations sponsored by U.S. Atomic Energy Commission.

From introduction: The scope of work of the study was to compile and analyze information on the resources and requirements of the southwestern, southeastern, and north-central coastal regions of the Commonwealth, and assess industrial and agricultural activities which in conjunction with the power and desalting plants, might comprise the energy center complex. The study was also to identify the need for any experimental, pilot or demonstration projects which benefit the practical application of the Energy Center concept in Puerto Rico.

From introduction: In this study on raw material sources of uranium the Southern Interstate Nuclear Board has catalogued all known occurrences of uranium and some references to thorium in a 17-state area (P1. 1). These occurrences have been evaluated as potential sources of uranium by the State Geological Surveys and the consultant group of SINB. Favorability guides have been applied to the known occurrences and recommendations have been made for future action by the states involved, federal agencies, or by industry. State recommendations are included in state-by-state summaries. The state reports were written either by personnel of the State Geological Surveys or were abstracted from State geological survey data by members of the consultant group...The purpose of this study was to compile information on and systematically assess uranium and other radioactive occurrences in the region. The SINB undertook the project because of its statutory, interstate capability as an extension of government in each of the 17 states, an arrangement that lends itself effectively to this cooperative undertaking.

This is a report on the aerial radiometric and magnetic reconnaissance survey of portions of Arizona and New Mexico in the Nogales Quadrangle.

From abstract "As part of the Department of Energy (DoE) National Uranium Resource Evaluation Program, LKB Resources, Inc. has performed a rotary-wing reconnaissance high sensitivity radiometric and magnetic survey, encompassing several 1:250,000 quadrangles in southwestern Arizona and southeastern California. The surveyed area consisted of approximately 9300 line miles. The radiometric data was corrected and normalized to 400 feet terrain clearance. The data was identified as to rock type by correlating the data samples with existing geologic maps. Statistics defining the mean and standard deviation of each rock type are presented as listings in Volume I of this report. The departure of the data from its corresponding mean rock type is computed in terms of standard deviation units and is presented graphically as anomaly maps in Volume II and as computer listings in microfiche form in Volume I."

From abstract: This two-part report provides an essentially complete listing of radioactive occurrences in Colorado, with a comprehensive bibliography and bibliographic cross-indexes.
