The 'Oil Shale (Rio Blanco County)' file is part of the Grover Heinrichs mining collection. Grover was the Vice President of Heinrichs GEOEXploration, located in Tucson, Arizona. The collection contains over 1,400 folders including economic geology reports, maps, photos, correspondence, drill logs and other related materials. The focus of much of the information is on the western United States, particularly Arizona, but the collection also includes files on mining activity throughout the United States, foreign countries, and 82 mineral commodities.

These are shapefiles and final unioned polygon coverages used to calculate coal resources of the A through D coal zones, Yampa coal field, northwestern Colorado. Yamafing was used for the A coal zone, yambfing was used for the B coal zone, etc. Polygons that make up the final unioned polygons include counties, 7.5' quadrangles, townships, surface and coal ownership, leased areas, net coal thickness categories, and overburden categories. The final unioned coverage for each coal zone, was clipped by the resource boundary polygon of each coal zone. These polygons are described in the metadata files for the yam_bnd coverages.

These are shapefiles and coverages that represent areas of combined State and Federal coal leases and mined-out areas in the Yampa coal field. Yamaleasg contains polygons for which resources were not calculated for the A coal zone. Yambleasg contains polygons for which resources were not calculated for the B coal zone, etc.

Digitization of a selection of oil and gas well pad sites in the Piceance region of Western Colorado. A random sample of 146 pad locations from the "Digitized Piceance Oil and Gas Pads of Western Colorado, 2015" were used to identify the locations digitized in this dataset. The 146 polygons spatially intersect polygons in the 2015 shape file, but are not completely contained within the 2015 polygons. Well pad sites were delineated using a modified version of the Rapid Land Cover Mapping protocol (Preston and Kim, 2016). The base imagery used to delineate boundaries is the 2005 National Agriculture Imagery Program (NAIP) imagery.

These are shapefiles and ARC/INFO polygon coverages showing the isopachs of total net coal in beds greater than or equal to 1.2' thick for the A, B, C, and D coal zones in the Williams Fork Formation, Yampa coal field, northwestern Colorado. YAMATHKG is for the A coal zone, YAMBTHKG is for the B coal zone, etc.

These are shape files of final unioned polygon coverages used to calculate coal resources of the B and D coal zones, Lower White River coal field, Deserado assessment area, northwestern Colorado. Desbfing was used for the B coal zone; Desdfing was used for the D coal zone. Polygons that make up the final unioned polygons include counties, 7.5' quadrangles, townships, surface and coal ownership, lease area, overburden, and coal thickness categories. The final coverages were clipped to the resource areas for each coal zone, which are described in the metadata files for the des_bnd coverages.

Land status and Federal mineral ownership in the Danforth Hills coal field, northwestern Colorado. Polygons that make up the ownership coverage include counties, 7.5' quadrangles, townships, surface and coal ownership. The ownership coverage was clipped to the base of the A and B coal zones or top of the Trout Creek Sandstone Mbr.

These are shapefiles and ARC/INFO polygon coverages showing the isopachs of total net coal in beds greater than or equal to 1 ft thick for the Cameo/Fairfield coal group and for the Cameo/Wheeler, South Canyon, and Coal Ridge coal zones, southern Piceance Basin coal assessment area. Also included are isopachs of total net coal in beds 1-2.3 ft thick, 2.3-3.5, 3.5-7.0, and 7.0-14, and greater than 14 ft thick in the Cameo/Wheeler coal zone.

This is a shape file and coverage of the top of the Rollins Sandstone Member. It outlines the area underlain by the coal-bearing Cameo/Fairfield coal group in the southern Piceance Basin coal assessment area. Also, it delimits the area within which resources were calculated and reported in the southern Piceance Basin coal assessment area. The polygon was adjusted to match the topography of the DEM.

This is a shapefile and point coverage of 627 data points used in the assessment of coal in the southern Piceance Basin study area. Information in this file includes x, y location and point identifier. Lithologic and stratigraphic data and the geographic distribution of coal are based on our interpretations of geophysical logs from 526 drill holes as well as published lithologic descriptions from 31 coal exploration holes and 70 published stratigraphic sections described from outcrops.

This is a shapefile and unioned polygon ownership coverage used to calculate coal resources of the A through D coal zones, Yampa coal field, northwestern Colorado. Polygons that have been combined include counties, 7.5' quadrangles, townships, surface and coal ownership. This ownership coverage was clipped by the largest resource boundary polygon--that of the A coal zone.

Digitization of oil and gas well pad sites in the Piceance region of Western Colorado. Well pad sites were delineated using a modified version of the Rapid Land Cover Mapping protocol (Preston and Kim, 2016). The base imagery used to delineate boundaries is the 2015 National Agriculture Imagery Program (NAIP) imagery. Well coordinate locations facilitating the targeting of well pad sites were downloaded from the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission (COGCC) in February 2016.

Mean random vitrinite reflectance (Ro) is the most widely accepted method to determine thermal maturity of coal and other sedimentary rocks. However, oil-immersion Ro of polished rock or kerogen samples is commonly lower than Ro values measured in samples from adjacent vitrinite-rich coals that have undergone the same level of thermal stress. So-called suppressed Ro values have also been observed in hydrous pyrolysis experiments designed to simulate petroleum formation. Various hypotheses to explain Ro suppression, such as sorption of products generated from liptinite during maturation, diagenetic formation of perhydrous vitrinite or overpressure, remain controversial. To experimentally test for suppression of vitrinite...

Final unioned polygon coverages and shapefiles used to calculate coal resources of the A through G coal zones, Danforth Hills coal field, northwestern Colorado. Danafing was used for the A coal zone; Danbfing was used for the B coal zone; etc. Polygons that make up the final unioned polygons include counties, 7.5' quadrangles, townships, surface and coal ownership, lease boundaries, overburden, and coal thickness categories. The final coverages were clipped to the resource areas for each coal zone, which are described in the metadata files for the *_bnd coverages.

The U.S. Geological Survey developed a coupled groundwater and surface-water flow (GSFLOW) model to represent the aquifers of the Colorado Plateau and Upper Colorado River Basin. The study area covers approximately 142,000 square miles and includes parts of Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Utah, and Wyoming. To support this modeling effort, groundwater well withdrawal volume data were needed from January 01, 1980 to September 30, 2022. These data were retrieved from online state databases. In addition to withdrawal-volume data, well-construction data including depths and/or perforated casing intervals were recorded when available from the databases and/or scanned driller’s logs. Arizona groundwater-withdrawal volume...
