Seasonal variation in metal concentrations in a stream affected by acid mine drainage, St. Kevin Gulch, Colorado Seasonal variation in metal concentrations in a stream affected by acid mine drainage, St. Kevin Gulch, Colorado

Mining of mineral deposits in the Rocky Mountains has left a legacy of acidic inflows to otherwise pristine upland watersheds. Since 1986, the U.S. Geological Survey has studied physical, chemical, and biological processes that affect the transport and transformation of metals in St. Kevin Gulch, an acidic, metal-rich stream near Leadville, Colorado. Well-known chemical processes have...

Map showing geology, oil and gas fields, and geologic provinces of Europe including Turkey Map showing geology, oil and gas fields, and geologic provinces of Europe including Turkey

Introduction This digitally compiled map includes geology, geologic provinces, and oil and gas fields of Europe including Turkey. The maps are part of a worldwide series of maps on CD-ROM released by the U.S. Geological Survey's World Energy Project. The goal of the project is to assess the undiscovered, technically recoverable oil and gas resources of the world. For data management...

Preliminary geologic map of the Little Piute Mountains, California: A digital database Preliminary geologic map of the Little Piute Mountains, California: A digital database

The Little Piute Mountains Digital database contains digital geologic and geographic information for the study area. The geology was mapped at a scale of 1:8,000, and the topographic information was input from the Little Piute Mountains, CA 1:24,000 quadrangle. The accuracy of the spatial information is limited to the input scale. Postscript files, originally published in paper format as...
