Stereoradiography As Applied To Problems Of Petrology., Martin Goldstone
Stereoradiography As Applied To Problems Of Petrology., Martin Goldstone
Masters Theses
"Stereoscopic examination of radiographs of rock and ore samples allows a rapid, cursory determination of texture and structure without time consuming preparation and use of thin sections. In addition, volumetric estimates of known mineral components can be made providing they possess significantly different x-ray absorption characteristics.
Stereoscopic effect was most pronounced for specimens having well defined components of structure such as bedding, banding, lineation, inclusions, textural variations and moderate to large x-ray absorption differences. In general, these conditions were best met by ores or ore minerals with their related gangue minerals.
Stereoscopic examination was not successful in revealing twinning or …

Pelecypoda From The Lower Fox Hills Formation (Upper Cretaceous) Of Emmons County, North Dakota, Rodney M. Feldmann
Pelecypoda From The Lower Fox Hills Formation (Upper Cretaceous) Of Emmons County, North Dakota, Rodney M. Feldmann
Theses and Dissertations
The Fox Hills Formation in Emmons County, North Dakota, consists of 250-350 feet of medium to fine grained sand and sandstone with some shale interbeds. In Emmons County, the four members, Trail City, Timer Lake, Bullhead(?), and Colgate are not as distinct lithologically as they are in the areas from which they were described; thus, the unit has been subdivided into a lower part consisting of crossbedded sand and sandstone with calcareous, fossiliferous concretions and an upper part consisting of interbeds of buff sand and chocolate shale.
The gradational change from Pierre Shale lithology to the sands of the overlying …
The Structural And Stratigraphic Relationships In The Paleozoic Rocks Of Eastern North Dakota, Frederick V. Ballard
The Structural And Stratigraphic Relationships In The Paleozoic Rocks Of Eastern North Dakota, Frederick V. Ballard
Theses and Dissertations
The thickness and areal extent of the commonly defined Paleozoic rock units in eastern North Dakota has been determined by a study of mechanical well logs. Isopachous wops of these units reveal several positive areas which persisted and influenced sedimentation and unit thickness throughout most of the Paleozoic Era. Precambrian topographic highs of either erosional or structural origin produced those influences in early Paleozoic time, whereas later effects resulted from periodic structural rejuvenation of the original highs. The activity of those highs appears to be related to the location of the basin depocenter. The most prominent highs were in Cavalier, …

A Paleontological Study Of The Gunflint Microfossil Assemblage, J. William Schopf
Honors Papers
Precambrian microfossils discovered in nonferruginous charts of the lower "algal" members of the Gunflint formation of southern Ontario are of great interest in the evolutionary scheme of primitive life. The environment of deposition of the deposit, and the indigenous and biogenic nature of the microfossil assemblage are considered. A discussion of the small but diversified assemblage, including twelve micro-forms, seven of which have not previously been reported, is presented.

Fossil And Recent Beryciform Otoliths: An Adjunct To Ichthyological Classification., C. Kurt. Lamber
Masters Theses
"Otoliths are calcareous bodies, of consistent form, secreted in the auditory labyrinths of some higher fishes. Of three pairs, only the taxonomically important earstones (sagittae) are considered here. Specifically, this study is restricted to the sagittae of beryciform fishes (Order Beryciformes). Removal of some taxa from the order, and the possible relating of others, is suggested.
The morphology of beryciform sagittae is described, and three basic supra-familial groups are recognized. Diagnostic characters for families are given, with diagnoses of genera added. Sagittae of characteristic species are illustrated.
Otoliths of fossil beryciform fishes, as known from specimens and published illustrations, are …
Hydrogeology Of Reservoir Sites In The Meramec River Basin, Missouri., John H. Anderson
Hydrogeology Of Reservoir Sites In The Meramec River Basin, Missouri., John H. Anderson
Masters Theses
"Governmental and private agencies have proposed construction of multiple purpose dams in the Meramec River Basin for flood control, conservation, recreation and possible power development. Evaluation of the effects of reservoirs created by these dams on ground water conditions has not been published. Study of possible effects led to the thesis that prediction of changes in ground water conditions could be made.
Several limited applications of ground water geology techniques to the problem of reservoir-ground water relations were studied; no thorough previous studies were found. Apparently, complete studies have not been undertaken by even the larger agencies.
Inspection of the …
Geology Of The Northern Half Of The Ellington Quadrangle Missouri., Robert Charles. Thornton
Geology Of The Northern Half Of The Ellington Quadrangle Missouri., Robert Charles. Thornton
Masters Theses
"Geologic mapping has been completed for the northern half of the Ellington Quadrangle, Missouri. Rocks exposed in the thesis area are Precambrian and Paleozoic in age. The Precambrian rocks are granites and felsite. The Paleozoic rocks include the Potosi and Eminence Formations, of Upper Cambrian age, and the Gasconade Formation of Ordovician age. Distinction between the Potosi and Eminence Formations is difficult because of conformable and transitional relationships. In the thesis area sufficient evidence was available to separate the dolomites of the Potosi and Eminence as mappable units. This mapping should be useful as a basis for more detailed geologic …

Geology Of The Sedillo-Cedro Canyon Area, Bernallio County, New Mexico, Bert Norman Brown
Geology Of The Sedillo-Cedro Canyon Area, Bernallio County, New Mexico, Bert Norman Brown
Earth and Planetary Sciences ETDs
This report was undertaken primarily as a study of Pennsylvanian strata which crop out in the Sedillo-Cedro Canyon area. The subdivision of the Madera formation as proposed by Read and others (1944) was adopted for purposes of mapping. This subdivision is based on a dominance of either limestone or clastic rocks in the formation.
The writer was unable to measure a Pennsylvanian section in the field due to thickness changes, facies gradations, and faults which were often concealed by dense soil cover. However, by visually traversing the area on aerial photographs using arbitrarily chosen zones, estimated thicknesses for the members …

Hypogene Zoning In The Lordsburg Mine District, Hidalgo County, New Mexico, K. F. Clark
Hypogene Zoning In The Lordsburg Mine District, Hidalgo County, New Mexico, K. F. Clark
Earth and Planetary Sciences ETDs
Although descriptions of the Lordsburg mining district have been in the literature for more than fifty years, no reference to hypogene zoning of the ores has been made. The present work is mainly concerned with hypogene zoning and related phenomena. Hypogene zoning, temperature of formation, and paragenesis are interrelated factors in ores differentiated from magmas. All three processes are discussed in this thesis. Other aspects of the mining district are mentioned only where relevant.
