During 1976, there were active in Nebraska 41 limestone quarries; 592 sand, gravel and silt or siltstone pits; 8 clay or shale pits; 24 sandstone pits; and 1 peat pit. These 666 mining operations disturbed 820 acres and restored 78 acres during the year.

Water Resources Data For Nebraska Water Year 1976

Conservation and Survey Division: Faculty and Staff Publications

Water resources data for the 1976 water year for Nebraska consist of records of stage, discharge, and water quality of streams; stage and contents of lakes and reservoirs; and water levels and water quality in wells and springs. This report contains discharge records for 146 gaging stations; stage and contents for 9 lakes and reservoirs; water quality for 40 gaging stations, 18 ungaged stations, 27 partial-record flow stations, and 96 wells; and water levels for 66 observation wells. Also included are 114 crest-stage partial-record stations and 12 low-flow partialrecord stations. Additional water data were collected at various sites, not part …

Long-Distance Turbidite Correlations In The Horseshoe Abyssal Plain, William H. Hoyt

Geology Theses and Dissertations

Few studies on modern abyssal plain turbidites have attempted to assess the lateral extent of individual units and few have therefore been able to provide any information on the evolution of turbidity deposits across long abyssal plain distances. In the 4755 m-deep Horseshoe Abyssal Plain, ten distinct lithologic units (six of these Iberian Peninsula-derived turbidites) were delineated in nine piston cores on the basis of stratigraphic position, thickness (range of 20 cm to greater than 500 cm), color, sediment type, sedimentary structures, x-ray mineralogy, and the ubiquitous presence of units in all abyssal plain and supplying canyon piston cores. In …

Laws, Rules, And Regulations Pertaining To Groundwater In Nebraska, Gerald R. Svoboda

Conservation and Survey Division: Faculty and Staff Publications

This publication contains (1) Nebraska laws pertaining to groundwater, and (2) the duties assigned to or the rules and regulations developed by various Nebraska agencies charged with the regulation of groundwater use. Following public hearings, rules and regulations can be changed at any time by state agencies. Each state agency with responsibility for groundwater regulation is able to supply, upon request, its rules and regulations pertaining to groundwater use. Water legislation varies from state to state because of differences in climate, availability and utilization of water, and fundamental legal concepts inherited at the time of statehood. Some states have laws …

The Geology Of The Castle Rock Area, Grant, Harney And Malheur Counties, Oregon, John David Wood

Dissertations and Theses

The geology of the Castle Rock area aids in the understanding of Cenozoic volcanic stratigraphy and structures in an area where these volcanic rocks thin near the margins of the pre-Tertiary basement rocks and structural trends are overlapping. The Castle Rock area is unique in several aspects and is important in understanding and interpreting the geology in adjacent regions which have all been studied, at least on a regional basis. Intrusive ash-flow bodies of the Dinner Creek Ash-Flow Tuff, well-exposed sections of complexly interstratified volcanic rocks and well-exposed faults, and of high amount of erosional relief are features which make …

Geology And Ore Deposits Of The Johnnie District, Nye County, Nevada, Stanley Wayne Ivosevic

UNLV Theses, Dissertations, Professional Papers, and Capstones

The Johnnie district, in the northwestern Spring Mountains, Nye County, Nevada, may have produced a little under 100,000 troy oz of gold, since the discovery of the district in 1890.

An approximately 13,000-ft-thick (4,000 m) section of east-dipping upper Precambrian through Middle Cambrian miogeosynclinal clastic and carbonate rocks is exposed in the district. The strata are, in order of decreasing age, the Johnnie Formation, Stirling Quartzite, Wood Canyon Formation, Zabriskie Quartzite, and Carrara and Bonanza King Formations. These are overlain by Cenozoic units which include and older unit and a younger unit of fanglomerate, the older containing a megabreccia deposit, …

Structural Studies In The Northern Chester Dome Of East-Central Vermont, Bruce Wallace Nesbit

Geology Theses and Dissertations

Rocks in the Eastern Vermont Sequence are highly metamorphosed and are said to range in age from Precambrian to Siluro-Devonian. The sequence outcrops on Keyes Mountain, about 6km Northwest of Felchville, Vermont, and an area on this mountain about 2km square was mapped in great detail.
The dominant rock type found is quartzofeldspathic gneiss, but schistose gneiss, amphibolite, quartzite and schist also occur. Most of these rocks are layered but layering has been transposed in many places and much of it is probably secondary. Layering and schistosity both dip dominantly to the north at about 25º.
A number of mesoscopic …

Collecting Nebraska's Colorful Agates, Roger K. Pagian

Conservation and Survey Division: Faculty and Staff Publications

The inexperienced gemstone collector may sometimes think of Nebraska as being a place Mother Natural forgot. Mother Nature, however, may be enjoying a little chuckle at the many gem collectors who drive right through Nebraska on their way to more exotic gem fields.
