- A Study of Uranium Deposits in the Copper Mountain Area: Fremont and Hot Springs Counties, Wyoming
- Report documenting a study of the Copper Mountain area to "evaluate the potential uranium production to determine, if possible, the origin and conditions of deposition of the uranium; and suggest possible guides to prospecting in this and geologically similar areas. All known radioactive deposits were examined and samples were collected for special studies and for assay of uranium content" (p. 5).
- A Summary of the Geology of Crooks Gap, Fremont County, Wyoming, as Related to Uranium Resources
- A report summarizing the geology of Crooks Gap, Fremont County, Wyoming, as related to Uranium Resources
- The Gas Hills Uranium District and Some Probable Controls for Ore Deposition
- A generalized geologic map shows the locations of the uranium mines and some of the many occurrences and prospects in the Gas Hills district. Included also are recently-mapped structural features and results of analyses of uranium in water.
- Photogeologic maps of the Miles Ranch and Love Ranch quadrangles, Fremont and Natrona Counties, Wyoming
- These maps were compiled primarily from 1/60,000-scale vertical aerial photographs taken in June 1954.
- A Preliminary Report on the Precambrian Iron Deposits Near Atlantic City, Wyoming
- This report studies the Precambrian iron deposits and major geological features near Atlantic City, Fremont County, Wyoming.
- UMTRA Project Water Sampling and Analysis Plan, Riverton, Wyoming
- Surface remediation was completed at the former uranium mill site in Riverton, Wyoming, in 1990. Residual radioactive materials (contaminated soil and debris) were removed and disposed of at Union Carbide Corporation`s (Umetco) nearby Gas Hills Title 2 facility. Ground water in the surficial and semiconfined aquifers (known collectively as the `uppermost aquifer`) below the former mill and tailings site has been contaminated. No contamination has been detected in the deeper, confined sandstone aquifer. The contaminant plume extends off site to the south and east. The plume is constrained by surface wetlands and small streams to the east and west of the site and by the Little Wind River to the south. Fifteen monitor wells installed in 1993 were sampled to better define the contaminant plume and to provide additional water quality data for the baseline risk assessment. Samples also were collected from domestic wells in response to a request by the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality in January 1994. No contamination attributable to the former uranium milling operations have ever been detected in any of the domestic wells used for potable supplies.
- Umohoite from the Lucky Mc Mine, Fremont County, Wyoming
- The following report describes the study of the hydrous uranium-molybdenum mineral umohoite discovered in the Lucky Mc mine, Wyoming.
- Mineral Resources of the Honeycomb Buttes Wilderness Study Area, Fremont and Sweetwater Counties, Wyoming
- From summary: This report includes field investigations to evaluate the mineral resource potential of the Honeycomb Buttes were conducted during the summer of 1984. Geologic mapping, geochemical sampling, geophysical surveys, stratigraphic and sedimentological studies, and surveys of prospects delineated areas of very low grade placer gold deposits in terrace gravels and low and moderate resource potential for additional similar undiscovered placer gold deposits, low and moderate resource potential for small uranium deposits, moderate resource potential for accumulation of oil and gas, and low resource potential for coal and oil shale.
- Mineral Resources of the Sweetwater Canyon Wilderness Study Area, Fremont County, Wyoming
- From abstract: This report includes field investigations to evaluate the mineral resource potential of the Sweetwater Canyon Wilderness Study Area that were conducted during the summer of 1986.
- Progress Report on the Geology and Uranium Deposits of the Gas Hills Area, Fremont and Natrona Counties, Wyoming
- From introduction: This report concerns the investigation of uranium deposits in the Gas Hills area in July 1954.
- Preliminary Reconnaissance for Uranium in the Green River Basin and the Rock Springs Uplift, Sweetwater and Fremont Counties, Wyoming
- Abstract: Preliminary reconnaissance for uranium in the Green River Basin and the Rock Springs Uplift revealed anomalous radioactivity northwest of Oregon Buttes in the Tipton tongue of the Green River formation and in the Cathedral Bluffs tongue of the Wasatch formation, and in the Tipton tongue in Red Creek Basin.
- Investigation of Tuffs Near Lysite, Wyoming for Selenium
- Report issued by the Bureau of Mines over studies conducted on seleniferous tuff deposits in Wyoming. Results of the tuff samples obtained are presented. This report includes tables, maps, photographs, and illustrations.
- Analyses of Coals in the United States with Descriptions of Mine and Field Samples Collected between July 1, 1904 and June 30, 1910: Part 1. -- Analyses
- From Significance and value of Analyses of Coal: "The analyses published in this report cover samples of coal collected in many different parts of the country with unusual care by experiences men, in such manner as to make them representative of extensive beds of coal."
- Analyses of Coals in the United States with Descriptions of Mine and Field Samples Collected between July 1, 1904 and June 30, 1910 Part 2. Descriptions of Samples
- From Introduction: "This volume contains the descriptions of the samples whose analyses are published in the preceding volume, Part I of this bulletin. The descriptions have been compiled from the notebooks of the persons who collected the samples, have been condensed from accounts given in published reports of the United States Geological Survey, or have furnished by the collection themselves. Inasmuch as the descriptions represent the work of many persons during a period of six years, and inasmuch as they were recorded under widely differing conditions, they necessarily vary in fullness detail."
