Abstract: "This bibliography supplements the information on salt published in U.S. Geological Survey Bulletin 1019-J, "Annotated Bibliography and Index Map of Salt Deposits in the United States," by Walter B. Lang, 1957. The supplement contains additional information on the salt deposits of the United States and of foreign countries, as well as data on the composition, chemistry, geologic occurrences, geophysical exploration, distribution, technology, and production of salt. Additional supplements will be issued from time to time to keep information on these subjects current."

The following report analyzes the contaminant materials found in glaciers and ice caps.

Abstract: Uranium-bearing coal and carbonaceous shale .of the Rio Bonito formation of Pennsylvanian age have been found in the States of Sao Paulo, Santa Catarina, and Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. The uranium oxide content of the samples collected in the State of Sao Paulo ranges from 0.001 percent to 0.082 percent. The samples collected in Santa Catarina averaged about 0.002 percent uranium oxide; those collected in Rio Grande do Sul, about 0.003 percent uranium oxide. Since the field and laboratory investigations are still in their initial stages, only raw data on the radioactivity and uranium content of Brazilian coals are given in this report.

A report about a geometry based on the reciprocal lattice concept and geometrical construction of Ewald needed for the interpretation of transmission electron-diffraction single-crystal patterns.

A report which refers to a study that indicated there is a significant correlation between electrical resistivity and the relative favorability for occurrence of ore.

The following report covers a study of the electrical properties of the Morrison formation in the Uravan mineral belt of the Colorado Plateau province where it is indicated that there is a significant correlation between electrical resistivity and the relative favorability for occurrence of ore. This report presents the measurements of resistivity trends.

From abstract: This report describes geologic and oceanographic factors relevant to the selection of a site in northwestern Alaska, at which an experimental harbor can be created by the explosion of a nuclear device. Part I describes the results of a preliminary survey of the entire coastal and offshore region between Nome and Point Barrow: Part II consists of a more detailed evaluation of the Cape Thompson-Cape Seppings area; and Part III is a theoretical consideration of the effect of the ocean upon the temperature and distribution of permafrost. The report is based entirely upon the study of published and unpublished reports, field notes, and maps, interviews with the few geologists who have visited the region, and the interpretation of aerial photographs.

From abstract: This report describes the Rainier underground test of September 19, 1957 conducted at the Nevada Test Site with a 1.7 kiloton nuclear device.

The following report covers geological studies on the Capitol Reef area in western Wayne and north-central Garfield Counties, Utah.

Report discussing the geology of the Garo deposit, which is located in the west-central part of Park County, Colorado.

Report outlining detailed information about the geology of the Garo deposit in Colorado, mined for radium, uranium, vanadium, and copper. It specifically discusses the geology related to the various ores, as well as other relevant characteristics.

From abstract: The Rainy Day mine in the Circle Cliffs area, Utah, is developed Dn a long slender pod of uranium ore. Ore is localized in siltstone of the Moenkopi formation of Triassic age, on the south edge of a channel about 3,300 feet wide by 40 feet deep that is filled with sandstone of the Shinarump member of the Chinle formation of Triassic age. Shale of the Chinle rests directly on siltstone of the Moenkopi on either side of the channel.

Report discussing the geology of the Rainy Day uranium mine in Garfield County, Utah. From Introduction: "This report describes the relation of the uranium deposit to the local geology and presents several ore and subore analyses which show similarities between this deposit and those in the Shinarump and Moss Back members of the Chinle formation of the Triassic age."

Abstract: "Monazite placers in the western Piedmont of North and South Carolina were explored by the U. S. Geological Survey in 1951-54 and are estimated to contain at least 53,000 short tons of ThO2 and 4,600 short tons of U3O8. None of these deposits is being mined."

The following report describes a laboratory sample splitter, the slotted cone splitter, designed in in the form of 60[degree] cone.

A report about the absorption spectra of the thallium-dithizone mixed-color system. An analytical procedure based on this system is given which is applicable to pure solutions.

The following report covers investigations on sedimentary rocks of Middle Pennsylvanian age in northeastern Oklahoma, southeastern Kansas, and western Missouri. Distribution of uranium and other trace elements in these rocks was studied during 1955 and 1956.

A report about the U. S. Geological Survey's program about uranium investigations and geologic mapping in the Monument Valley area, Arizona. A resource appraisal of the area was an inherent part of the program, and is detailed in this report.

The following report describes a method of obtaining precise unit-cell data from oriented electron diffraction powder patterns.

The following report is a summary of rock salt deposits in the United States, and discusses them as possible disposal sites for radioactive waste.

The following report covers studies and investigations of uranium deposits in the Black Hills of South Dakota and Wyoming. The ore minerals include carnotite, tyuyamunite, metatyuyamunite, corvusite, rauvite, uraninite, and coffinite, as well as minor amounts of other uranium and vanadium minerals.

The following report describes studies of thermodynamic equilibria of vanadium in aqueous systems as applied to the interpretation of the Colorado Plateau ore deposits.

This report presents results of a geological study of the Little Cone quadrangle in southwestern Colorado, as well as information on the mineralogy of the location.

From foreword: This report details geologic investigations of radioactive deposits in the United States.
