Depositional and Ground-Water Flow Systems in the Exploration for Uranium Depositional and Ground-Water Flow Systems in the Exploration for Uranium 1979

 In cooperation with several State and Federal agencies, the Bureau of Economic Geology has conducted several projects on the geology, origin, and extent of uranium resources in Texas.

Hydrogeology of Trans-Pecos Texas Hydrogeology of Trans-Pecos Texas 1990

This guidebook, Hydrogeology of Trans-Pecos Texas, grew out of our interest in the hydrogeology of desert environments.

Geothermal Resources of the Texas Gulf Coast: Environmental Concerns Arising from the Production and Disposal of Geothermal Waters Geothermal Resources of the Texas Gulf Coast: Environmental Concerns Arising from the Production and Disposal of Geothermal Waters 1976

Disposal and temporary surface storage of spent geothermal fluids and surface subsidence and faulting are the major environmental problems that could arise from geopressured geothermal water production.

Hydrogeology of Gulf coast aquifers, Houston-Galveston area, Texas Hydrogeology of Gulf coast aquifers, Houston-Galveston area, Texas 1977

Aquifers in the Houston-Galveston area are composed principally of fluvial-deltaic sediments. The Alta Loma Sand is a complexly faulted, high-sand-percent unit that represents a seaward progression of fluvial, delta-plain, and delta-front facies.

Identification of surface faults by horizontal resistivity profiles, Texas coastal zone Identification of surface faults by horizontal resistivity profiles, Texas coastal zone 1978

The land surface in the Texas Coastal Zone is interlaced with active and potentially active surface faults. They are subtle features which are difficult to identify until they have caused damage to manmade structures. To date (1978), significant damage has resulted.

Quaternary faulting in East Texas Quaternary faulting in East Texas 1980

Three closely spaced oblique-slip faults displace a Quaternary gravel and sand unit overlying Eocene Claiborne strata in the Trinity River Valley, Leon County.

Studies of the suitability of salt domes in east Texas basin for geologic isolation of nuclear wastes Studies of the suitability of salt domes in east Texas basin for geologic isolation of nuclear wastes 1980

The suitability of salt domes in the east Texas basin (Tyler basin), Texas, for long-term isolation of nuclear wastes is being evaluated. The major issues concern hydrogeologic and tectonic stability of the domes and potential natural resources in the basin.

Geology and geohydrology of the east Texas basin -- a report on the progress of nuclear waste isolation feasibility studies (1979) Geology and geohydrology of the east Texas basin -- a report on the progress of nuclear waste isolation feasibility studies (1979) 1980

Analysis during the second year was highlighted by a historical characterization of East Texas Basin infilling, the development of a model to explain the growth history of the domes, the continued studies of the Quaternary in East Texas, and a better understanding of the near-dome and regional hy

The third year of research was highlighted by the integration of regional basinal studies with growth histories for specific domes, studies of cap-rock diagenesis and salt deformation, preliminary studies of ground-water flow and geochemistry around Oakwood Dome, and preliminary studies of micros
