National Uranium Resource Evaluation: Gillette Quadrangle, Wyoming, South Dakota, and Montana

Description: From Purpose and Scope: "The Gillette 1º x 2º Quadrangle, Wyoming, and South Dakota was evaluated to find volumes of rock considered favorable for uranium deposits and which could contain at least at 100 mt tons U3O8 with an average grade of 0.01 percent U3O8 or more. All geologic environments to a depth of 1,500 m (5,000 ft) evaluated through the use of surface investigations and subsurface information."

Sediment Transport and Source Areas of Sediment and Runoff, Big Sandy River Basin, Wyoming

Description: Abstract: A study was conducted for the resolution of sediment source areas in the Big Sandy River basin, southwestern Wyoming. Suspended-sediment and bedload data were collected in order to determine total sediment transport at several locations within the basin. The bedload data were compared to the Einstein bedload function and total load data were compared to the Colby method. The bedload comparison showed a higher estimation of transport rates with Helley-Smith sampler measurements than wi… more

Streamflows and Channels of the Green River Basin, Wyoming

Description: From introduction: One purpose of this study was to describe streamflows of the Green River and its tributaries. In addition to describing the cause and occurrence of streamflows in the study area, a brief discussion of how streamflow data are collected and summarized is presented as background information to users of this report who may be unfamiliar with streamflow measurement. The second and primary purpose of this study was to describe hydraulic characteristics of streams in the study area.

A Data-Management System for Areal Interpretive Data for the High Plains in Parts of Colorado, Kansas, Nebraska, New Mexico, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Texas, and Wyoming

Description: From abstract: The High Plains Regional Aquifer System Analysis study has developed a regional water-resources (and related) data storage and retrieval system to organize and preserve areal interpretive data. The system is general and can easily be adapted for other studies. This report documents the High Plains data base as well as the general system that is independent of the High Plains area.

National Uranium Resource Evaluation: Arminto Quadrangle, Wyoming

Description: From Introduction Purpose and Scope: "The Arminto 1º x 2º quadrangle, in central Wyoming (Fig. 1), was evaluated to identify geologic environments that exhibit characteristics favorable for uranium deposition. Evaluation, consisting of three separate and distinct phases, started in October 1978 and ended in March 1980. It must be emphasized that this report is meant to be a preliminary reconnaissance-type study to identify favorable environments, as defined above."

National uranium resource evaluation: Rawlins quadrangle, Wyoming and Colorado

Description: From Introduction: "The Rawlins Quadrangle (2º) is in south-central Wyoming and extreme northwest Colorado (Fig. 1). Evaluation of the quadrangle was conducted to identify and delineate areas that contain environments exhibiting characteristics common to known uranium-bearing environments."

National Uranium Resource Evaluation: Casper Quadrangle, Wyoming

Description: From Introduction: "The Casper NTMS 1º x 2º Quadrangle, Wyoming (Fig. 1), was evaluated to identify and delineate areas and geologic units that exhibit characteristics favorable for the occurrence of uranium deposits. Formation and environments were evaluated for uranium favorability to a depth of 1500 m by surface and subsurface studies."

National Uranium Resource Evaluation: Lander Quadrangle, Wyoming

Description: From Introduction: "The Lander Quadrangle, Wyoming (Fig. 1), was evaluated to identify geologic environments and delineate areas that exhibit characteristics favorable for the occurrence of uranium deposits. Favorable areas are those that are capable of containing uranium deposit of at least 100 tons of U3O8 in rocks with a minimum average ore grade of 0.01%."

Hydrology of Salt Walls Creek--A Plains Stream in Southwestern Wyoming

Description: From purpose and scope: The study on which this report is based began during 1975 in cooperation with the U.S. Bureau of Land Management as part of their Energy Mineral Rehabilitation Inventory and Analysis program. The study was directed toward determining hydrologic processes and their relation to other aspects of the environment in the Salt Wells Creek basin, and how this knowledge might be used in planning for the strip mining of coal.

Hydrogeologic Features of the Alluvial Deposits in the Owl Creek Valley, Bighorn Basin, Wyoming

Description: Introduction: The alluvial deposits form the principal aquifer in the Owl Creek Valley and the source of water to many stock and domestic wells and to a few irrigation wells. In 1975, the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Wyoming State Engineer, began an investigation of the hydrology and geology, including the geomorphology, of Owl Creek Valley (fig. 1) to determine possible favorable areas for obtaining ground water of adequate chemical quality for irrigation and other uses.

National Uranium Resource Evaluation: Thermopolis Quadrangle, Wyoming

Description: From Introduction: "The Thermopolis Quadrangle (1º x 2º), Wyoming, was evaluated to identify and delineate areas and geologic units that exhibit characteristics favorable for the occurrence of uranium deposits. Geologic environments and formations were evaluated to a depth of 1500 m from surface and subsurface investigations. Areas and environments were categorized as favorable, unfavorable, or unevaluated for uranium deposits."
