Appendices containing data on uranium availability in the Wells Quadrangle to accompany a report on U.S. uranium resources in Nevada, Idaho, Utah.

From Purpose and Scope: "The Wells 2º Quadrangle, Nevada, Utah, and Idaho (Fig. 1), was evaluated to identify and delineate areas and geologic environments that exhibit characteristics favorable for the occurrence of uranium deposits. All geologic environments in the quadrangle were evaluated to a depth of 1500 m (5,000 ft) using all available surface and subsurface data."

Report issued by the U.S. Bureau of Mines discussing materials surveys conducted on mercury. As stated in the foreword, "the surveys dealing with metals and minerals summarize the demand-supply position in the United States and include information on production, imports, consumption, exports, substitutes, and pertinent history" (p. v). This report includes maps, tables, illustrations, and photographs.

"The purpose of this profile is to summarize the ecological information available for and relevant to stream and riparian habitats of the Great Basin. The Great Basin comprises the northern half of the Basin and Range physiographic province and covers most of Nevada and western Utah and portions of California, Oregon, and Idaho. The entire basin actually consists of numerous subbasins and mountain ranges which present an extremely diverse physical setting" (p. iii).

From introduction: This report describes the deposits of analcite in the Green River formation, to compare them with other similar deposits, and to present them with other similar deposits, and to present the observations and inferences that led him to explain them as alteration products of volcanic ash that fell into an ancient saline lake. The report also records the occurrence of several thin beds of sepiolite, or meerschaum, in the Green River formation and presents new data on the molds of saline minerals of the Green River formation whose determination affects directly the interpretation of the analcite and sepiolite deposits.

Report discussing investigation of the relation of uranium and phosphate in the Phosphoria formation and its close stratigraphic equivalents.

Report discussing investigations seeking uranium in deposits of black shale around the geographical areas of the Western States

Report discussing deposits of uranium in beds of carbonaceous shale and lignite in the Goose Creek district. The highest concentrations of uranium were found in the central part of the Salt Lake formation.

A report regarding uranium-bearing carbonaceous shale and lignite in the goose creek district in Cassia County, Idaho, Boxelder County, Utah, and Elko County, Nevada.

This report presents the results of analyses of the airborne gamma radiation and total magnetic field survey flown for the Mc Dermitt quadrangle.
