Effects of Uranium Mining and Milling on Ground Water in the Grants Mineral Belt, New Mexico
TL;DR: In this article, the ground water contamination from uranium mining and milling results from the infiltration of mine, mill, and ion exchange plant effluents containing elevated concentrations of radium, selenium, and nitrate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radiological evaluation of the effects of uranium mining and milling operations on selected ground water supplies in the Grants Mineral Belt, New Mexico.
TL;DR: Ground-water contamination from uranium mining and milling results from the infiltration of mine and mill discharge waters and ion-exchange plant effluents enriched in uranium series decay products, and municipal water supplies in the area have not been adversely affected by radionuclides in wastes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Land and Water Use Impacts on Ground‐Water Quality in Las Vegas Valleya
TL;DR: In this paper, a trend-surface analysis of recent water-quality data for depth intervals or “slices” of 0 to 50, 51 to 100, and 101 to 300 feet (0 to 15.2 m, 15.5 to 39.5 m, 30.8 to 91.4 m) revealed that natural trends below a depth of 50 feet are explainable in terms of broad hydrogeologic conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radium ‐ 226 in ground water of west central florida
TL;DR: The radium-226 data from 1966 and from 1973-1976 in mined and unmined mincralized areas and nonmineralized areas in the primary study area in Polk, Hardee, Hillsborough, Manatee, and De Soto counties were studied using log-normal probability plots and nonparametric statistical tests for significant difference as functions of time, depth, and location as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Utility of a computerized data base for hydrogeologic investigations, Las Vegas Valley, Nevada
TL;DR: Kaufmann et al. as discussed by the authors developed an extensive computerized data base consisting of water analyses and water-well logs, which were manipulated and reduced using a variety of graphical and statistical techniques applicable to analysis of spatial and temporal changes in water quality.
