From Abstract: "A qualitative spectrographic method of analysis of single mineral grains, impurity inclusions, X-ray powder spindles, and other small samples weighing 1 mg or less is described."

From abstract: The Permian marine phosphorite deposits of the western United States were laid down in the Phosphoria formation and its partial stratigraphic equivalents over an area of about 135,000 square miles in Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Utah, and Nevada. The deposits in the eastern part of the field lie on the western margin of the structurally simple North American craton.

Report describing the phosphorite deposits of the western United States with the objective of outlining features that are common to both the Kara Tau phosphorite deposits of Russia and the western United States deposits in an effort to define their origin.

This report discusses preliminary results acquired from investigations made on the ultrasonic properties of uranium, such as sonic vibrations in the megacycle frequency range.

Report describing a nomogram for calculating percent composition from mineral-grain counts. From abstract: "A nomogram for calculating percent composition from mineral-grain counts reduces several of the more tedious arithmetical operations to two mechanical ones."

From introduction: The purpose of the mapping was to study the habits of the uranium minerals with relation to the geologic features of the White Canyon area, The work has been done by the U. S. Geological Survey on behalf of the Atomic Energy Commission. The Tiger claim is recommended for exploration by diamond drilling to obtain geologic information on the trend, length, depth, and width of the scour channel, and the relationship of uranium and copper minerals to the Shinarump-filled channel and to fractures.

Report discussing an investigation into the effects of camber and leading-edge-flap deflection on the pressure pulsations on thin rigid airfoils at a range of Mach numbers. The ideal camber or flap deflection was found to be dependent on Mach number and normal-force coefficient. The results of this testing, which used a 64A006 airfoil, was compared to previous testing using a 65A006 airfoil.

Report presenting the effects of approximately 50-percent biaxial stretch-forming on the tensile and crazing properties of polymethyl methacrylate. Results indicated that biaxially stretch-forming polymethyl methacrylate approximately 50 percent does not affect its tensile strength of secant modulus of elasticity in tension. Results regarding standard tensile tests, stress-solvent crazing tests, long-time tensile tests, discussion of mechanism of crazing, accelerated weathering tests, additional experimental work, and possible applications of stretch-forming are provided.
