Summary

The data set contained herein were collected as part of a cooperative U.S. Geological Survey and U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) project entitled "Field Investigations to Help Support the Assessment of Background Concentrations for Uranium (U) at the Homestake Mining Company, Superfund Site near Milan, New Mexico, July 2016.” The site is underlain by alluvial and several consolidated rock units (Chinle and San Andreas aquifers) that contain in some cases elevated concentrations of U above the EPA MCL (maximum contaminant level). Borehole geophysical data were collected from six alluvial wells at the site. Borehole geophysical logs included: induction, fluid resistivity, natural gamma, spectral gamma, fluid temperature, caliper, [...]

Purpose

Borehole geophysical data were collected to augment and inform water-quality sample collection and analysis. For example, borehole geophysical logging data including hydrogeophysics analysis is useful for assessing sources of water in a well and geochemical differences. The borehole geophysical logs that were collected provide insights into the distribution of flow in a well, correlation of flow with particular stratigraphic units, and subsurface heterogeneity pertaining to potential sources of U.
