The following report provides information for the public good about the origin, quality, and quantity of mineral resources world-wide. This Bulletin reports progress on some of the current activities of the Office of Mineral Resources and reflects the necessity for an international perspective regarding mineral resources and research technology.
From abstract: This report describes Cambrian through Mississippian rocks in the Powder River Basin representing five depositional sequences that reflect both the biological evolution and the tectonic development of western North America.
A report which examines the sedimentary rocks deposited along a segment of the west coast of the interior seaway of North America in southwest Wyoming during the late Santonian and early Campanian subages of the Late Cretaceous Epoch.
A report that discusses the interpretation of impact shock evidence found in the K-T boundary sections and discusses the constraints imposed by the Australasian tektites and microtektites on the role of the 180-km Chicxulub crater in mass extinction.
A report regarding geologic investigations of the 1986 Marryat Creek, Australia, Earthquake, and implications for paleoseismicity in Stable Continental Regions.
A report which describes the hydrothermal alteration of numerous outcrop samples collected in the vicinity of Mount Hood, as well as drill cuttings from 13 of the geothermal drill holes for which we were able to obtain sample splits.
From Abstract: This report describes the kinematics of the Aspen Grove landslide of Ephraim Canyon in central Utah that moved during the spring and summer months of 1983-86.
A paper about thermal activity in Yellowstone National Park. It assesses impacts of geothermal, oil, gas, and other types of development adjacent to the park. It also relates these changes to magma under the park.
From abstract: This report is a study on the history of sedimentology and deposition of the lower Paleocene Tullock Member of the Fort Union Formation, Powder River Basin, Wyoming and Montana while looking at the geometry and sedimentary structures.
From abstract: Information in this report supplements the geologic map of the Stanford Canyon quadrangle that provides chemical data, thin sections, and hand specimens for each of the samples collected in the quadrangle.
From introduction: The investigation described herein is a part of the USGS Evolution of Sedimentary Basins Program. This report concerns the Pennsylvanian and Permian stratigraphic framework, structural development, and paleogeography of the San Juan Basin.
From abstract: This report describes the North Horn Formation in the eastern part of the San Pitch Mountains of Utah was deposited in nonmarine environments that included alluvial fans, varied fluvial and overbank settings, and lacustrine settings.
From abstract: A study of mean random vitrinite reflectance of surface and near-surface samples was conducted in western Colorado and eastern Utah in order to better understand the subsidence and thermal histories of the Laramide-age Uinta and Piceance basins and to estimate the the thickness of overburden removed from the two basins. The history of uplift on some of the adjacent Laramide uplifts were also studied.
Proceedings of a workshop held in February 1990 called "Tertiary Stratigraphy of Highly Extended Terranes, Southern Basin and Range" at the Desert Research Center of the California State University System, Soda Springs, near Baker, California. This volume is a collection of stratigraphic data and interpretation.
