30 Gilsonite and related hydrocarbons of the Uinta Basin, Utah1949glisonite; hydrocarbons; Uinta Basin; kerogen; bitumenHydrocarbons are important in the present study for two reasons: ( 1) An understanding of their nature and origin may lead to a better understanding of the oil possibilities in the area. (2) From gilsonite, kerogen, and associated bituminous substances there may be fractionated many still-undiscover...
31 Lithofacies and related hydrocarbon accumulations in Tertiary strata of the western and central Uinta Basin, Utah1975lithofacies; hydrocarbon accumulations; Tertiary strata; Uinta Basin; stratigraphyStrata of Tertiary age in the Uinta Basin were deposited in an internally drained depression. They can be divided into (1) a central core of organic-rich open lacustrine claystone and mud-supported carbonate surrounded by (2) marginal lacustrine sandstone, claystone and mud- and grain-supported carb...
32 Mineralogy of oil shale in the upper part of Parachute Creek member of the Green River Formation in the Eastern Uinta Basin, Utah1976Parachute Creek; Green River Formation; Uinta Basin; Utah; X-ray diffraction; Oil shale; Curly bed; Wavy bed tuffs; Mahogany zone; Naval Oil Shale Reserve No. 2; Federal Prototype Oil Shale Leas Tract Ua; Smectite; MineralogyThe relative abundance and distribution of major and minor minerals have been determined by X-ray diffraction for samples of Green River Formation oil shale in three drill cores from the eastern part of the Uinta Basin, Utah. The samples in each core are from the same rock stratigraphic interval bet...

The area covers approximately 52 square miles of what is regionally called Raven Ridge. Raven Ridge, a series of hogback ridges, trends northwest-southeast, and includes three Eocen...
36 P.R. Spring and Hill Creek Tar Sand Areas: A resource assessment (in progress)2008-02-22P. R. Spring; Hill Creek Tar Sand Areas; Uinta Basin; Green River; resource assessmentThe P.R. Spring-Hill Creek Tar Sand Area is located at the southern flank of the Uinta Basin. The area is generally bounded by T. 12 S. in Uintah County, extending southward to T. 17 S. and the Roan Cliffs in Grand County. It is further bounded by the Green River on the west and the Utah-Colorado st...
