2005 BRAC Commission Final COBRA Run - COBRA USAF 0113v3 (126.3c1) - 113Z - Hill AFB, UT

Second volume of a report documenting a high-sensitivity airborne radiometric and magnetic survey of the Ogden and Salt Lake City quadrangles including results of data interpretation, significance factor profile maps, stacked profiles, and histograms.

From abstract: Results of an ERDA-sponsored, high-sensitivity, airborne gamma-ray spectrometer and magnetometer survey of a portion of the Delta, Utah, NTMS, 1:250,000 scale quadrangle, carried out under Bendix Field Engineering Corporation Subcontract 76-019-L are discussed. The objective of the survey was to evaluate the Delta area as a uraniferous province, i.e., a region showing surface indications of a generally higher uranium content, and evidence of geochemical uranium enrichment over the other natural radioactive elements, where detailed exploration for uranium would likely be successful. The known presence of late stage Tertiary rhyolites and granites associated with fluorite and uranium occurrences and one productive uranium mine strongly suggested that the area is such a uraniferous province. A DC-3 aircraft equipped with a gamma-ray spectrometer using nine large-volume NaI detectors, two 400 channel analyzers, and ancillary geophysical and electronic equipment was employed for data collection.

Appendix containing single-record and averaged record data listings to accompany a report on aerial radiometric and magnetic survey of the Delta area in Utah.

Second volume of a report on aerial gamma-ray and magnetic survey of the Delta area of Utah, containing illustrations such as histograms, anomaly maps at a reduced scale of 1:500,000, and magnetic profiles related to the survey.

This report follows a 12-hole drilling program that was conducted on the northwestern flank of the San Rafael swell of eastern Utah.

Aeronautical map of a four state region consisting of Utah, Arizona, New Mexico, and Colorado that shows topographical features, ranch lands, national parks, and various aeronautical symbols for flight navigation. An enlarged portion of the map in the bottom left corner shows a closer look at Denver, Colorado and its surrounding cities. Scale 1:500,000.

Report documenting a geologic study of the San Rafael River Desert Mining District, including background describing the stratigraphy and geologic history, and the economic geology study containing more extensive descriptions of the area's mineralogy and uranium ores, including a description of mining and impacts.

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.

Research will be done on the reverse-forward combustion and steam injection for the in-situ recovery of oil from tar sands. This environmental survey will serve as a guideline for the consideration of environmental consequences of such research. It covers the construction phase, operational phase, description of the environment, potential impacts and mitigations, coordination, and alternatives. (DLC)

Results obtained from a program designed to locate a low- or moderate-temperature geothermal resource that might exist beneath Hill Air Force Base (AFB), Ogden, Utah are discussed. A phased exploration program was conducted at Hill AFB. Published geological, geochemical, and geophysical reports on the area were examined, regional exploration was conducted, and two thermal gradient holes were drilled. This program demonstrated that thermal waters are not present in the shallow subsurface at this site. (MHR)

The primary objective of this project was to enhance domestic petroleum production by field demonstration and technology transfer of an advanced-oil-recovery technology in the Paradox Basin, southeastern Utah. If this project can demonstrate technical and economic feasibility, the technique can be applied to approximately 100 additional small fields in the Paradox Basin alone, and result in increased recovery of 150 to 200 million barrels (23,850,000-31,800,000 m3) of oil. This project was designed to characterize five shallow-shelf carbonate reservoirs in the Pennsylvanian (Desmoinesian) Paradox Formation and choose the best candidate for a pilot demonstration project for either a waterflood or carbon-dioxide-(CO2-) miscible flood project. The field demonstration, monitoring of field performance, and associated validation activities will take place within the Navajo Nation, San Juan County, Utah.
