Regional structural cross sections, mid-Permian to Quaternary strata, Texas panhandle and eastern New Mexico:  distribution of evaporites and areas of evaporite dissolution and collapse Regional structural cross sections, mid-Permian to Quaternary strata, Texas panhandle and eastern New Mexico: distribution of evaporites and areas of evaporite dissolution and collapse 1988

The Palo Duro Basin of the Texas Panhandle and eastern New Mexico contains bedded Permian salts of sufficient thickness and depth for the basin to be considered as a potential site for long-term storage and isolation of high-level nuclear waste.

Lineament analyses based on landsat imagery, Texas panhandle Lineament analyses based on landsat imagery, Texas panhandle 1981

Analysis of seven frames of Landsat imagery covering the Texas Panhandle and adjacent areas revealed linear physiographic features including stream channels, stream valleys, scarps, and aligned playa-lake depressions.

Finley, R.J., Gustavson, T.C. Geological Circular Bureau of Economic Geology
Ecological Interpretations of Pliocene and Pleistocene Stratigraphy in the Great Plains Region, Ecological Interpretations of Pliocene and Pleistocene Stratigraphy in the Great Plains Region, 1957

In the Great Plains the succession of gross ecological conditions through Neogene and Quaternary time may be interpreted from the stratigraphy, geomorphological history, buried soils, and fossil mollusks and plants.

Limestone and dolomite resources, Lower Cretaceous rocks, Texas Limestone and dolomite resources, Lower Cretaceous rocks, Texas 1966

Limestone is one of the most important nonfuel mineral resources in Texas. Annual production exceeds $30 million; value added in the manufacture of such products as cement and lime amounts to about $100 million annually.

Stratigraphy and petroleum potential of pre-Pennsylvanian rocks, Palo Duro basin, Texas panhandle Stratigraphy and petroleum potential of pre-Pennsylvanian rocks, Palo Duro basin, Texas panhandle 1985

Pre-Pennsylvanian rocks in the Palo Duro Basin include (1) basal transgressive marine Cambrian(?) sandstones deposited over Precambrian basement, (2) overlying Lower Ordovician dolomites of the Ellenburger Group that formed when shallow seas covered much of the North American continent, and(3) Mi

Hydrogeochemistry and water resources of the Triassic lower Dockum Group in the Texas panhandle and eastern New Mexico Hydrogeochemistry and water resources of the Triassic lower Dockum Group in the Texas panhandle and eastern New Mexico 1986

Topographically controlled ground-water-basin divides, established during the Pleistocene by erosion of the Pecos and Canadian River valleys, prevent ground-water recharge in the outcrop of the Triassic Dockum Group from entering the confined part of the aquifer in the Dockum Group beneath the So

Dutton, A.R., Simpkins, W.W. Report of Investigations Bureau of Economic Geology
Landsat-based lineament analysis, East Texas basin and Sabine uplift area Landsat-based lineament analysis, East Texas basin and Sabine uplift area 1987

Lineament analysis was used to study the relationship between subsurface structure and surficial features in East Texas, southeastern Oklahoma, southwestern Arkansas, and northwestern Louisiana-areas of low topographic relief, moderate vegetation cover, and diverse land use.
