Preliminary report on Bureau of Mines Yellow Creek corehole no. 1, Rio Blanco County, Colorado

Description: Analysis of geologic, hydrologic, and geophysical data obtained in and around Yellow Creek core hole No. 1, Rio Blanco County, Colorado, indicate a 1,615-foot section of oil shale was penetrated by the hole. Geophysical log data indicate the presence of 25 gallons per ton shale for a thickness of 500 feet may be marginal. The richest section of oil shale is indicated to be centered around a depth of 2,260 feet. Within the oil shale the interval 1,182 to 1,737 feet is indicated to be relatively … more

Earth Vibrations from a Nuclear Explosion in a Salt Dome

Description: The following report presents data from the SALMON experiment, an experiment made to study the mechanics of a tamped nuclear detonation in a salt dome in terms of generated shock waves as they are propagated out of the dome and progressively through the crust and mantle of the earth. This experiment was made in the Tatum salt dome, Mississippi, October 22, 1964.

Production test authorization -065 unautoclaved fuel corrosion test - D Reactor

Description: The objectives of this test are to determine if autoclave film has an important role in the groove and ledge corrosion mechanism, to evaluate the performance of unautoclaved fuel in corrosion environments of different severities, and to verify the importance of process water pH in regulating the frequency and severity of groove and ledge corrosion.

Classification - guidance for specialty irradiations

Description: The purpose of this memorandum is to describe the concepts for accomplishing localized tailoring of thermal neutron flux. The application of fuel displacement and enrichment techniques in lattice cells surrounding a test facility may accelerate sample irradiation rates by an order of magnitude or more above those in the normal reactor environment. Thus, test irradiation conditions may be established by such flux tailoring techniques which are not indicative of the specific flux and power condit… more
