Assessment of In-Place Oil Shale Resources of the Green River Formation, Uinta Basin, Utah and Colorado Assessment of In-Place Oil Shale Resources of the Green River Formation, Uinta Basin, Utah and Colorado
Using a geology-based assessment methodology, the U.S. Geological Survey estimated a total of 1.32 trillion barrels of oil in place in 18 oil shale zones in the Eocene Green River Formation in the Uinta Basin, Utah and Colorado.

Nahcolite resources in the Green River Formation, Piceance Basin, northwestern Colorado Nahcolite resources in the Green River Formation, Piceance Basin, northwestern Colorado
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) recently completed an assessment of in-place nahcolite (NaHCO3) resources in the Piceance Basin, northwestern Colorado. Nahcolite is present in the oil shale deposits of the Parachute Creek Member of the Eocene Green River Formation. It occurs as disseminated aggregates, nodules, bedded units of disseminated brown crystals, and white crystalline beds...

Assessment of in-place oil shale resources of the Green River Formation, Piceance Basin, western Colorado Assessment of in-place oil shale resources of the Green River Formation, Piceance Basin, western Colorado
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) recently completed a reassessment of in-place oil shale resources, regardless of richness, in the Eocene Green River Formation in the Piceance Basin, western Colorado. A considerable amount of oil-yield data has been collected after previous in-place assessments were published, and these data were incorporated into this new assessment. About twice as...

Land and federal mineral ownership coverage for northwestern Colorado Land and federal mineral ownership coverage for northwestern Colorado
This Arc/Info coverage contains land status and Federal mineral ownership for approximately 26,800 square miles in northwestern Colorado. The polygon coverage (which is also provided here as a shapefile) contains two attributes of ownership information for each polygon. One attribute indicates where the surface is State owned, privately owned, or, if Federally owned, which Federal agency...
