[Plates I-X]

Description: 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 IV - Estimated Reserves of Vanadium-Bearing Rock In Areas of Extraction

Description: 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.

The Extraction Method of Purification of Uranyl Nitrate

Description: Technical report. Three extractions of a diethyl ether solution of uranyl nitrate with small portions of water are effective in removing rare earths, as is shown by radio-gadolinium and radio-europium tracer experiments. A study of representative ethers, alcohols, ketones, and esters showed that diethyl ether and a mixture of 85% ethyl methyl ketone with 15% xylene are the best solvents for the extraction.

Radiation Problems of the Chemical Plant

Description: "Absorption measurements have been made in a large body of water to evaluate the contribution to the radiation intensity produced by the degradation of radiation without absorption. Radiation intensities three times those expected from a simple exponential absorption were found. Scattering from the air of gamma radiation has been measured and has been found to agree satisfactorily with theoretical predictions. The penetration of radiation through curved pipes in shielding has been measured and … more

The Production of Uranium Metal by Metal Hydrides Incorporated

Description: Synopsis: Metal Hydrides Incorporated was a pioneer in the production of uranium metal on a commercial scale and supplied it to all the laboratories interested in the original research, before other methods for its production were developed. Metal Hydrides Inc. supplied the major part of the metal for the construction of the first experimental pile which, on December 2, 1942, demonstrated the feasibility of the self-sustaining chain reaction and the release of atomic energy.
