This is a pair of maps of Monument Valley in Arizona and Utah.

This is a tectonic map of the Colorado Plateau.

From introduction: The purposes of this exploration are to determine routes, to locate water holes, and to select areas where detailed geologic study could profitably be undertaken.

From abstract: This report is about six gas samples that were obtained from the Mississippian Leadville Limestone in the McElmo field, Colorado, and the Lisbon field, Utah. These samples were recorded to contain a high reading of carbon dioxide and the report investigates these results.

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

From introduction: The primary object of this work was to aid prospectors and mining men in finding and exploiting new deposits of uranium-bearing ores in the Colorado Plateau region, particularly of those in the Shinarump and Moss Black members of the Chinle formation.

From introduction: The investigation described herein is a part of the USGS Evolution of Sedimentary Basins Program. This report concerns the Pennsylvanian and Permian stratigraphic framework, structural development, and paleogeography of the San Juan Basin.

This is a geological map of the uranium region of the Colorado Plateau.

Report summarizing information regarding the mineralogy of uranium ores of the Colorado Plateau. The report includes sections on classification, mineralogy of the primary unoxidized ores, oxidation sequence and mineralogy of vanadiferous uranium ores, mineralogy of oxidized nonvanadiferous uranium ores, relation of oxidation to water saturation of ore, relative stability and size of oxidized deposits, secondary enrichment, and time and depth of oxidation.

The following document provides a mineralogical and geological map of the Colorado Plateau providing deposits and groups of deposits that have been found to produce 1,000 tons or more of uranium-vanadium within December 31, 1953.

Report discussing uranium oxides, their thermodynamic relations, and how these relations connect to the oxidation states of uranium ores found at the Colorado Plateaus. This report provides information regarding thermodynamic properties of some compounds and ions of the U-O-H2O system, discussion and interpretation of thermodynamic properties, and a summary with conclusion.

Abstract: "This report, designed to make available to field geologists and others information on identification and occurrence of uranium minerals of the Colorado Plateaus, contains physical properties, X-ray data, and in some instances results of chemical and spectrographic analysis of 24 uranium and 17 vanadium minerals. Also included is a table giving the optical properties of uranium minerals and a list of locations of mines from which the minerals have been identified."

The following report covers the study of electrical properties of the Morrison formation in the Uravan mineral belt of the Colorado Plateau to determine if there are anomalous variations in these properties in and near zones of uranium-vanadium minerals which might serve as a target for geophysical prospecting.

Report discussing the Shinarump Conglomerate, the channels leading to this conglomerate, and the uranium minerals which localize at the base of this conglomerate via the channel sediments. The geology of the area, information on the channels, and information regarding the localization of uranium in channels are included.

Report discussing the exploration of the uranium ore-containing ancient channels of the Shinarump member of the Chinle formation of Late Triassic age through the use of a refraction seismograph.

Report discussing stratigraphic studies of the Triassic and associated formations in northern Arizona and southern Utah. The programs of study included are "(1) regional stratigraphic descriptions and correlation of units, (2) sedimentary structure studies, (3) pebble studies, and (4) sedimentary petrology."

From abstract: "Stratigraphic studies of the Triassic and associated formations have been made in southeastern Utah and adjoining parts of Colorado and Arizona. These studies have followed five principal lines of investigation: regional stratigraphy, sedimentary petrology, pebble studies, sedimentary structure studies, and lithofacies studies."

Report discussing the investigation of the chemical composition of sandstone-type uranium ores and unmineralized sandstones of the Colorado Plateau. Spectrographic and chemical analyses was used.

The following report is the second compilation of reports describing the geology of the Basin and Range to Colorado Plateau Transition (BARCO) area.

Abstract: Water shortages are expected in the Upper Colorado River Basin because of increasing water demands for various uses. Ground-water supplies can help to reduce water shortages but ground-water reservoirs have not been studied in detail. The regional aquifer systems analysis of the Upper Colorado River Basin is a study of the major ground-water resources of the region. Aquifers occur in the sedimentary rock sequences in basins and uplifted regions, in volcanic-rock regions, and in stream-valley alluvium. The project work will include collection and compilation of existing geologic, geophysical, hydrologic, and geochemical data. These data will be used to assess the hydrologic characteristics of the aquifer systems and to estimate the hydrologic effects of discharge from, or recharge to, selected aquifers.

A report regarding plans for the Geological Survey's investigations of uranium in pre-Morrison formations in southern Utah, Northern Arizona, and Northwestern New Mexico.

A progress report regarding the stratigraphy of the Triassic and associated formations in part of the Colorado Plateau region. Concerns work done on behalf of the Division of Raw Materials of the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission.
