The following report describes the findings of air samplings taken that followed the Wasp detonation of Operation Teapot.

Abstract: This document is a survey analysis of soil samples from Los Alamos, Pueblo, Bayo, and Mortandad canyons to determine the presence and activities of radioactive contaminants. Also included are the results of analyses of a few samples of grass and of surface water. This survey covers the period from spring 1953 to spring 1955.

From abstract: The ore deposits are in fissue veins that contain silver, nickel, cobalt, and uranium minerals. The ore minerals, which include native silver, argentite, niccolite, millerite, skutterudite, nickel skutterudite, bismuthinite, pitchblende, and sphalerite, are in a carbonate gangue in narrow, persistent veins, most of which trend northeast. Pitchblende has been identified in the Black Hawk and the Alhambra deposits and unidentified radioactive minerals were found at five other localities. The deposits that contain the radioactive minerals constitute a belt 600 to 1,500 feet wide that trends about N. 450 E. and is approximately parallel to the southeastern boundary of the monzonite porphyry stock. All the major ore deposits are in the quartz diorite gneiss close to the monzonite porphyry. The ore deposits are similar to the deposits at Great Bear Lake, Canada, and Joachimsthal, Czechoslovakia.

From abstract: Forty-five areas of radioactivity in New Mexico had been investigated by government geologists or reported in the geologic literature before 1952. 21 areas contained visible uranium minerals and one contained thorium minerals. The occurrences were in the northwestern, north-central, central, southwestern, and southeastern parts of the State.

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.

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.

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."

this report describes about the substation location,elevation,exposure,instrumentation and records in the state of New Mexico.

Introduction: The Ambrosia Lake area includes all of T. 14 N., R. 10 W., and portions of adjacent townships in McKinley County, approximately 20 miles north of Grants, New Mexico (fig. 1). Uranium was discovered in April, 1955, and extensive exploration drilling followed.

Discussing a detailed reconnaissance of the uranium possibilities carried out to provide information for the individuals engaged in prospecting in and around the area.

Investigating possible structural, mineralogical and volcanic relations between the central core and ore-producing sediments of the northeast flank.

Discussing radioactive titaniferous heavy mineral placers in the San Juan Basin in New Mexico and Colorado.
