110 Palynology and petrography of some solid bitumens of the Uinta Basin, Utah1976-07bitumen; petrologic character; palyonogic content; plant material found in bitumenSeveral solid bitumens and bituminous substances of the Uinta Basin found in veins, brecciated fissures, cracks, joints, and porous rocks have been examined for petrologic character and palynologic content. Some samples of solid ozocerite, a native wax, intercalated in the matrix of brecciated zones...
111 Composition and origin of the Uinta Basin bitumens1963-01The names of the three formations of interest, from oldest to youngest, the Wasatch, Green River, and Uinta, have been used largely as facies terms to differentiate sediments which were believed to be of different age but actually were deposited simultaneously. The Wasatch is predominantly fluviatil...
112 Bituminous sands and some legal aspects of leasing1964A brief description of the more important bituminous sand deposits of Utah at Asphalt Ridge, Sunnyside, Whiterocks River, and other localities.
