From purpose and scope: The Lawton Quadrangle, Oklahoma and Texas (Fig. 1), was evaluated to a depth of 1500 m (5,000 ft) to identify geologic environments and delineate areas that exhibit characteristics favorable for uranium deposits. Determination of uranium favorability was based on the similarity of geologic characteristics to the National Uranium Resource Evaluation (NURE) recognition criteria described in Mickle and Mathews (eds., 1978).

Appendices containing data on uranium availability in the Lawton Quadrangle to accompany a report on U.S. uranium resources in Oklahoma and Texas.

Discussing the evaluation made of the Plainview NTMS Quadrangle to identify and delineate areas and geologic units that exhibit characteristics favorable for the occurrence of uranium deposits.

From Introduction: "The first demonstration plant sponsored by the Office of Saline Water was located in Freeport, Texas, and came 'on stream" in 1961. The incoming sea water was deaerated since both Speller (6) and Uhlig (7) recognized that dissolved oxygen was usually the controlling factor in the corrosion of iron stream condensate at temperatures even as high 400 degrees F. The water was acidified prior to daeration with H2SO4 to decompose the carbonates which subsequently would cause scale when the water was heated. After the carbonates were removed, the pH was raised to the neutral point, again to provide a less corrosive environment."

Report issued by the Bureau of Mines over petroleum-engineering studies conducted at the Sheridan oil field. The methods used for the study are presented and discussed. This report includes tables, maps, illustrations, and photographs.

Report issued by the Bureau of Mines over the Salt Flat fields in East Central Texas. As stated in the introduction, "this report deals with the development and production history of the Salt Flat field and gives comparative data on five outstanding fault fields. Two of these fields are producing from limestone and three from sandstone reservoirs" (p. 2-3). This report includes tables, maps, photographs, and illustrations.

Report issued by the Bureau of Mines discussing the demands on the oil industry due to an increase in automobiles in the United States. Improvements in drilling methods and refinery practices are presented. This report includes a table.

Abstract: This report is a synthesis of published and unpublished data on the rocks of the Anadarko basin.

From purpose and scope: The Amarillo, Texas, Quadrangle of the National Topographic Map Series (NTMS), scale 1:125,000, was evaluated to identify and delineate geologic environments favorable for the occurrence of uranium. The study was conducted by the Bureau of Economic Geology (BEG) of the University of Texas at Austin, under subcontract to Bendix Field Engineering Corporation (BFEC), for the National Uranium Resource Evaluation (NURE) program, managed by the Grand Junction Office of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). The evaluation began March 31, 1978, and ended March 31, 1980. Time spent by the authors and other BEG personnel in literature search, field work, evaluation of data, and preparation of the final report totaled approximately six man-years.

"The purpose of this report is to present the results of an inspection performed at Biggs Army Airfield (BAAF), Fort Bliss, Texas, during January 1972. The inspection was limited to visual observations, and no tests were conducted on any of the pavement facilities. A layout of the airfield is shown in plate 1" (p. 1).
