Abstract: During parts of July, August, and September 1951, a reconnaissance was conducted in parts of Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, and Idaho in search of new deposits of uranium-bearing carbonaceous rocks. One significant uranium occurrence was found, the Fall Creek deposit, Bonneville County, Idaho. Several additional localities were discovered that contain uranium in concentrations many times that normally found in carbonaceous rocks.

Report describing the phosphorite deposits of the western United States with the objective of outlining features that are common to both the Kara Tau phosphorite deposits of Russia and the western United States deposits in an effort to define their origin.

Abstract: Uranium was discovered in the Gas Hills of the Wind River Basin by Mr. Nail E. McNeice of Riverton, Wyoming while he was prospecting with a Geiger counter in September 1953. Field parties of the Atomic Energy Commission started work in the area in October 1953.

From purpose and scope: The purposes of this investigation are (1) to define the ground-water system in the Arikaree Formation, (2) to determine the hydrologic cause-and-effect relationships resulting from the current ground-water development, and (3) to provide a means of indicating the hydrologic effect of future ground-water development.

Abstract: Dissolved-solids concentrations and loads can be estimated from streamflow records using a regression model derived from chemical analyses of monthly samples. The model takes seasonal effects into account by the inclusion of simple-harmonic time functions. Monthly mean dissolved-solids loads simulated for a 6-year period at U.S. Geological Survey water-quality stations in the Green River Basin of Wyoming agree closely with corresponding loads estimated from daily specific-conductance records. In a demonstration of uses of the model, an average gain of 114,000 tons of dissolved solids per year was estimated for 6-year period in a 70-mile reach of the Green River from Fontemelle Reservoir to the town of Green River, including the lower 30-mile reach of the Big Sandy River.

From abstract: "This study used Landsat images and small-scale color and color-infrared photographs for selected geologic, hydrologic, and land-use applications within the Yampa River Basin" in Colorado and Wyoming. It includes maps, tables, and a glossary.
