Hydrogeochemical and Stream Sediment Reconnaissance Basic Data Report for Winnemucca NTMS Quadrangle, Nevada

Description: From abstract: This report presents the results of the geochemical reconnaissance sampling in the Winnemucca 10 x 20 quadrangle of the National Topographic Map Series (NTMS). We collected wet and dry sediment samples throughout the 18,770-km2 arid to semi-arid area and water samples at available streams, springs and wells. We present neutron activation analyses of uranium and trace elements and other measurements made in the field and laboratory in tabular hardcopy and microfiche format. The re… more

Environmental Assessment Overview Yucca Mountain Site, Nevada Research and Development Area, Nevada

Description: In February 1983, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) identified the Yucca Mountain site in Nevada as one of nine potentially acceptable sites for a mined geologic repository for spent nuclear fuel and high-level radioactive waste. The site is in the Great Basin, which is one of five distinct geohydrologic settings considered for the first repository. To determine their suitability, the Yucca Mountain site and the eight other potentially acceptable sites have been evaluated in accordance with t… more

Geologic Reconnaissance of the Topopah Spring and Timber Mountain Quandrangles, Nye County, Nevada

Description: The Topopah Spring and Timber Mountain 15-minute quadrangles comprising about 500 square miles in southern Nye County, Nev., are bounded by longitudes 116°15' W. and 116°30' W. and by latitudes 36°45' N. and 37°15' N. (fig. 1) The quadrangles are mostly within the Nevada Test Site and are approximately 90 miles northwest of Las Vegas (fig. 1). Lathrop Wells, the nearest town, is about 10 miles south of the southern boundary of the Topopah Spring quadrangle.

Neotectonics of the southern Amargosa Desert, Nye County, Nevada and Inyo County, California

Description: A complex pattern of active faults occurs in the southern Amargosa Desert, southern Nye, County, Nevada. These faults can be grouped into three main fault systems: (1) a NE-striking zone of faults that forms the southwest extension of the left-lateral Rock Valley fault zone, in the much larger Spotted Range-Mine Mountain structural zone, (2) a N-striking fault zone coinciding with a NNW-trending alignment of springs that is either a northward continuation of a fault along the west side of the R… more
