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.

The Mineral Resources of Texas map is designed to illustrate the historical and current (as of 1976) distribution of industrial mineral occurrences and production sites in Texas.

Geologic map that depicts the surface geology of parts of Presidio, Brewster, and Terrell Counties, Texas. The 14-page booklet indicates geologic formations, abbreviations, and ages.

Integrated, detailed, and comprehensive study of the physical stratigraphy, tectonic history, hydrogeology, geomorphology, and resource potential of the Palo Duro and Dalhart Basins, Texas Panhandle, is part of a national evaluation of ancient salt basins as potential sites for isolation and mana

Bastrop, Blanco, Burnet, Caldwell, Fayette, Hays, Lee, Llano, Travis, and Williamson Counties make up the Capital Area Planning Council (CAPCO) region in Central Texas (fig. 1). The region covers 8,427 square miles (21,826 km2) and includes land of great physical diversity.

Approximately 800 sediment samples from stream beds and bay bottoms of water bodies that compose the Matagorda Bay system were collected and analyzed. Shell-sand-mud ratios and total organic carbon content were determined, and 20 trace elements were detected.

Mapping based on Landsat imagery was initiated along the Texas coast for four test sites selected for contrasting vegetation, environmental geology, and levels of economic development.
