Qualheim, B

The results of the geochemical reconnaissance sampling in the Lovelock 1/sup 0/ x 2/sup 0/ quadrangle of the National Topographical Map Series (NTMS) are presented. We collected wet and dry sediment samples throughout the 18,854-km/sup 2/, arid-to-semiarid area and water samples at available streams, springs, and wells. Neutron activation analysis of uranium and trace elements and other measurements made in the field and laboratory are presented in tabular hardcopy and microfiche format. The report includes five full-size overlays for use with the Lovelock NTMS 1:250,000 quadrangle. Water sampling sites, water-sample uranium concentrations, water-sample conductivity, sediment sampling sites, and sediment-sample total uranium and thorium concentrations are shown on the separate overlays. General geological and structural descriptions of the area are included and known uranium occurrences in this quadrangle are delineated.
