Results of Diamond Drilling Mesas 1, 2, 3, and 4, Lukachukai Mountains, Northeastern Arizona

From purpose and scope: Diamond drill exploration of the Lukachukai district was undertaken to find minable bodies of uranium ore and to determine whether sufficient reserves were present to warrant construction of a local mill. A minimum of 30,000 feet and a maximum of 50,000 feet of drilling were assigned to block out ore in the discovery area, Mesa I (pl. 1.). It was anticipated that some of the footage might be used to test Mesa II should the area become accessible. With access to Mesas II and IV subsequently provided by roads constructed by F. A. Sitton, Inc., and access to Mesa III furnished by a road constructed by the Atomic Energy Commission, the area available for drilling was eventually increased by some three and a half times. With no increase in allotted footage, the hole density was correspondingly decreased,

Theoretical Calculations on ZPR Experimentation: Part 2. The Calibration of the Single Central Cross Control Rod

From Abstract: "The report is concerned with a theoretical analysis of the experiment known as the Calibration of the 3" Cross Control Rod. The experiment provided 29 points on a curve of reactivity (in hours per centimeter) versus depth of control rod insertion. An attempt to reproduce this curve theoretically has been quite successful."
