Reconnaissance geochemical maps of the Gee Creek Wilderness, Polk and Monroe counties, Tennessee

The reconnaissance geochemical survey of the Gee Creek Wilderness included the collection of 26 rock samples and 26 soil samples (fig. 2) and 61 bulk stream-sediment samples (fig. 4). These were analyzed for 34 elements, among which are the more common metals that potentially could occur in economic concentrations. 

Reconnaissance geologic map of the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness, Idaho County, Idaho, and Missoula and Ravalli counties, Montana

The Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness covers about 1.25 million acres in east-central Idaho and western Montana (fig. 1). The wilderness lies across the Bitterroot Range, which forms the boundary between Idaho and Montana, and includes large portions of the drainages of the Selway, Lochsa, and Bitterroot Rivers. Elevations range from 1,800 ft on the Selway River near the wilderness boundary to 10,157 f

Reconnaissance map showing thickness of volcanic ash deposits in the greater Hilo area, Hawaii

This study was undertaken to determine the thickness and distribution of volcanic ash deposits in the greater Hilo area, Hawaii, as a step toward evaluating their susceptibility to failure during earthquake shaking. On several occasions their instability has resulted in serious damage. For example, the 1868 earthquake (m=7+), following a prolonged rainy period, caused a debris flow of hillside ash

Seismicity map of the State of New Mexico

The data shown on this map and listed in table 1 are for earthquakes that were originally included in a study of seismic risk in the United States (Algermissen, 1969). This data file has been recompiled and updated through 1980. Some revisions of epicenters and intensities in the original file have been made, and intensities have been assigned to earthquakes that previously had none assigned. Only

Seismicity map of the State of Virginia

The data shown on this map and listed in table 1 are for earthquakes that were originally included in a study of seismic risk in the United States (Algermissen, 1969).  This data file has been recompiled and updated through 1980.  Some revisions of epicenters and intensities in the original file have been made, and intensities have been assigned to earthquakes that previouly had none assigned.  On
