Distribution of uranium in the Florida phosphate field

Land-pebble phosphate, hard-rock phosphate, and river-pebble phosphate are the three types of phosphatic rock found in Florida. This report is concerned primarily with the land-pebble deposits, the only type which contains a significant amount of uranium. The most productive part of the land-pebble district is in Polk and Hillsborough Counties, in the west-central part of the Florida peninsula. P

Progress on detection of radioactivity by airborne equipment

Coincidence and anti-coincidence counting rate meters and also an air conductivity meter have been installed in a transport plane to measure gamma radiation from ground sources. Materials containing 0.01 percent uranium can be detected at 500 feet and at an airspeed of 150 miles per hour.

The Carbon Creek and Awuna anticlines

At the interim meeting of the Technical Committee in Fairbanks, Alaska, in September 1949, the Navy Oil Unit was requested to make photogeologic analyses of the Driftwood, Awuna, and Carbon Creek anticlines before the November meeting. A report on the photogeology of the Driftwood anticline, based on available air photos, has already been distributed. The present report considers the geology of th
