Illustrations accompanying a report investigating the locations of vanadium-bearing phosphatic shale in West-Central Wyoming and Southeastern Idaho. The set includes seven maps (Plates I and V-X) showing the location of rock formations in the area and three charts (Plates II-IV) showing the correlation between the occurrence of vanadium deposits and the thin persistent beds of phosphate rock, oolite, siltstone, dolomite, and limestone with which they are interbedded.

Table showing the estimated reserves of vanadium-bearing rock in the Paris-Bloomington, Montpelier, Sublette Ridge, Swift Creek, and Strawberry Creek - Greys River Divide extraction areas in west-central Wyoming and southeastern Idaho. Indicated tonnage and inferred tonnage values are given for each area in millions of tons, along with the percentage of vanadium ore rock, maximum and minimum thickness, and average thickness of the rock in the extraction area.
