This is a preliminary geologic map, scale 1:24,000, of the Mt. Peale 1 NE Quadrangle in San Juan County, Utah and Montrose County, Colorado.

From abstract: The distribution of the known uranium deposits of the Colorado Plateau is being analyzed in order 1) to test for systematic relationships between that pattern and geologic factors, 2) to help guide exploration, and 3) to appraise the potential resources of the region and of each of its component areas.

Letter from Emily Rimmer Vasquez, Junior Director, to All Men's and Ladies Councils instructing the Junior Councils that there must division of Districts and Supervisors appointed.

Abstract: This report consists of four parts, the first three being descriptions of investigations compiled in the period October 1st, 1953 to April 1st, 1954; the fourth part is a summary of progress of the research based on our entire investigations completed prior to April 1st, 1954. The first part comprises a set of preliminary experiments investigating the mineral composition of the sandstones in thin sections, in an attempt to differentiate barren from ore-bearing sandstones. It appears that there are more rock-fragments and particularly more volcanic rock fragments in the ore zone (zone 4, Well C, Bull Canyon). In addition, silica cement appears to be associated with ore and carbonate cement with barren sediments. The second part details the investigation of the mudstones of the Bull Canyon Wells . A mixed layer lattice "illite" and a kaolin mineral are the most prominent in "normal" mudstones. Dye tests suggest there are differences between the clay minerals in the sandstone matrix of the ore zone and barren zone. In addition, the mudstone zones appear to differ in the response to the dye tests. The third part of the report details the bulk density determinations for cores from well B. The results confirm …

Report summarizing the results of geological exploration of the Atkinson Mesa area of Montrose County, Colorado and contains a brief description of the area's geology and ore deposits.

Report discussing a study revolving around montroseite and paramontroseite. This report is divided into several sections: source of the data, determination of the crystal structure of paramontroseite, refinement of the montroseite and paramontroseite structures by the method of least squares, structural features of the two, solid state alteration of montroseite, and other examples of solid state alteration phenomena.
