- 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."
- Effect of Oil-Base Drilling Fluid Filtrate on Analysis of Cores from South Coles Levee, California, and Rangely, Colorado Fields
- Report issued by the U.S. Bureau of Mines on the study of contamination of cores obtained with conventional core barrels. The effect of the oil-based drilling fluid and analysis of the cores are presented. The report includes tables, graphs, and illustrations.
- Geology and Coal Resources of the Meeker Quadrangle, Moffat and Rio Blanco Counties, Colorado
- From introduction: The investigations on which the greater part of this report is based were carried on by E. T. Hancock, the senior author, during the summer of 1911. They were undertaken by the United States Geological Survey under a comprehensive plan for collecting information about the undeveloped fuel resources of the Western States, both as a step toward the conservation of the coal resources of the United States and as a means of supplying the demand for information concerning the many valuable coal fields of the Western States.
- Ground-Water Potential of the Leadville Limestone on the White River Uplift in Garfield and Rio Blanco Counties, Colorado
- Purpose and scope: This report describes a preliminary reconnaissance of the water-bearing properties of the Mississippian Leadville Limestone in the western part of the White River Uplift (synonymous with the White River Plateau). The purpose of this preliminary investigation is to determine areas of the Leadville Limestone suitable for exploratory drilling and testing at relatively shallow depths to confirm the quality of water in storage.
- Hydrologic Analysis of the U.S. Bureau of Mines' Underground Oil-Shale Research-Facility Site Piceance Creek Basin, Rio Blanco County, Colorado
- This report examines the region of the Piceance Creek basin in Colorado so that the United States Bureau of Mines may develop plans for an underground oil-shale research facility in the center of the basin. It includes maps, charts, and graphs.
- Digital Model of Ground-Water Flow in the Piceance Basin, Rio Blanco and Garfield Counties, Colorado
- This report presents a "digital model used to simulate ground-water flow in the aquifer system in a basin drained by Piceance and Yellow Creeks, Colorado." It includes maps, diagrams, and tables.
- Rio Blanco Massive Hydraulic Fracture: Project Definition
- The Piceance Basin in Colorado contains an estimated 600 trillion cu ft of natural gas in place. Both the Rulison and Rio Blanco events have been detonated to determine the feasibility of nuclear fracturing to stimulate natural gas production in this basin. A demonstration program to test the relative effectiveness of massive hydraulic fracturing (MHF) to achieve natural gas production stimulation from the same gas reservoir is presented. Details are included on MHF design parameters, including surface and subsurface equipment, pumping requirements, evaluation of fracturing results, and all associated test programs; site characteristics and preparation; proposal for gas utilization program; environmental surveillance and comparative analysis of environmental aspects of MHF and nuclear stimulation; gas delivery estimates; project administration; and costs and scheduling.

- Discussing a geologic reconnaissance of the northwestern White River Plateau, in Rio Blanco and Garfield counties, Colorado.
- Recommendations for Drilling Parts of the Coal Creek Anticline, Rio Blanco County, Colorado
- Discussing recommendations for drilling parts of the Coal Creek Anticline in Rio Blanco County, Colorado
- Condition Survey of Wells and Springs in the Rio Blanco Project Area, Rio Blanco County, N.W. Colorado
- A report regarding a survey of the condition of wells and springs in the Rio Blanco County, in N.W. Colorado.
