Chicago-area deep borehole data and samples associated with the Chicago Metropolitan Water Reclamation District Tunnel & Reservoir Plan (TARP), circa 1970s. Cores from the project are being rescued, reviewed and incorporated into our permanent collection along with detailed core photographs. Also includes historical data such as original engineering reports and logs.

In 2008, Virginia Department of Energy received by donation from the University of Virginia (UVA) a large collection of rock, mineral, and fossil specimens that was at risk of imminent disposal or dispersal due to the lack of adequate storage facilities. The collection includes many valuable and irreplaceable geologic specimens collected in Virginia by UVA students, faculty, and geoscientists from the early Virginia Geological Survey. Parts of the collection were at one time displayed in the Lewis Brooks Hall of Natural Science, which opened in 1877. Following the closure of the UVA Department of Geology in the 1960s, the collection was moved to various warehouse storage areas, where it was largely forgotten and...

This collection contains 53 New Jersey Zinc Company zinc exploration maps and associated soil logs. They span a large part of northern New Jersey in Morris, Sussex, Hunterdon and Warren counties. The maps are held solely by the NJGWS. At one time these maps and soil logs were the property of the New Jersey Zinc Company but were donated to the NJGWS when the New Jersey Zinc Company went out of business in 1986.
The NJGWS scanned 536 mine site inspection reports (“Crib Sheets”) in its collection. There were two collections of crib sheets collected for mines and quarries inventoried during the late 1970’s and early 1980’s. The data was collected after receiving a federal grant to document the information. These sheets contain information on all mines and quarries in the state. The sheets contain specific information on each mine/quarry, including property owners of the mine at the time, production information, location of the mine/quarry sometimes including lot and block and geologic information.

This collection consists of parts of two cores, USGS 6 and USGS 7. The cores are 3 inches in diameter, with three feet of core per box. USGS 6 has 19 boxes of a non-continuous interval, 57 feet total. USGS 7 has 1 box. The cores are halite of the Salado Formation ranging in color from clear through pink to reddish orange (Roach 1966) and are Permian in age. Depths range from 1143 ft to 1437 ft. The cores were drilled following the nuclear detonation of Project Gnome in 1961. Roach (1966; USGS Branch of Astrogeology) took slices from the cores to analyze the thermoluminescence properties of the halite and how they were affected by the nucelar blast.
In 2011, New Jersey Geological Survey (NJGS) drilled a rock core on Upper Denmark Road in Oxford Township in support of New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection arsenic pollution investigation in Oxford, NJ. The rock core was used to characterize bedrock properties and determine presence of arsenic. The NJGS retains the boxes of core in 5-ft lengths, which are available for research.

The NJGWS scanned the two-volume Index to NJ Geological Survey Reports. They are an alphabetical listing of all topics in NJGS reports from 1835 to the late 1950’s included in NJGS Annual Reports and Bulletins. Volume one covers topics beginning with the letters A - K and Volume two covers topics beginning with the letters L - Z.

This is the collection of original paper gamma-ray logs, copies and other items that are associated with the gamma-ray logs housed at the Indiana Geological Survey. They are stored in 12 file cabinets. This represents all of the original paper copies since 1978 when the collection began. Each log can be found filed in the original file, used mainly as a master file, as well as by county, the working file. The paper logs have been digitized made available to the public at https://igws.indiana.edu/borehole-logs in .las and .pdf format.

Collections of 1 x 2, 1 x 3, and 2x 3-inch petrographic thin sections, mostly of sediments and sedimentary rocks from Nebraska. A few thin sections of igneous and metamorphic rocks from the subsurface of the state, and a few incidental thin-sections from various specimens collected outside of the state.Several full and emeritus faculty members (at least 5) have individual holdings of thin sections generated in the process of performing geological survey duties.Collections will almost certainly be lost in the absence of an enforced acquisition policy.

The NJGWS scanned and described 7 black and white paper photographs that illustrate the State’s efforts to prospect for the radioactive ore monzonite in the mid-1960s. These photographs of prospecting efforts in Chester Township provide important historical information regarding the State’s natural resource inventory. The photographs were scanned at 300 dpi using a HP ScanJet 8200 scanner and were saved as tiff files. The scanned copies were then added to the NJGWS’ digital archives which are available to the public. Each photograph was assigned a unique number for ease of identification and access in order to efficiently respond to future research requests.
