Report discussing investigations seeking uranium in deposits of black shale around the geographical areas of the Western States

From introduction: Field work, begun in the field season of 1951, was continued by the U. S. Geological Survey in the White Canyon area, San Juan County, Utah, from May 1 to October 28, 1952, The objectives of this work were to study the habits and character of uranium deposits in the area, to determine control and guides to ore and suitable areas for physical exploration, and to map and study the ore-bearing and adjacent strata to determine the regional geologic controls and habits of the uranium deposits, The White Canyon project is part of a regional mapping program on the Colorado Plateau being conducted by the Geological Survey on behalf of the U. S. Atomic Energy Commission.

From abstract: These results demonstrate that the self-potential method is not satisfactory for locating and delineating sulfide-bearing uranium ore bodies under conditions similar to those in the Happy Jack area.

From abstract: The purpose of the survey was twofold: to determine the trend of the Hideout Channel across Deer Flat and to delineate fractures cutting through the ore deposit at the Hideout mine.

From introduction: This report summarizes the results of detailed mapping and sampling completed during 1952 with particular reference to an area of about 60 square miles in T. 16 S. , R. 21 E. , Cassia County, Idaho, and parts of adjacent townships in Idaho, Utah, and Nevada. It supplements an earlier report based on reconnaissance stttdies in the Goose Creek district in 1951 (Hail and Gill, 1953).
