Abstract
This annotated bibliography was prepared by Warren I. Finch from a rough copy compiled by the late James C. Wright in either late 1967 or early 1968 as an aid to his understanding of the stratigraphic distribution of uranium deposits in Triassic rocks of the Southern high Plains. He did not finish it, inasmuch as several references listed are not annotated. Nevertheless, it is fairly complete for North American literature for years prior to 1967, but it does not contain any papers published in Europe, several of which are pertinent. A few papers oil localities in Wyoming, the Colorado Plateau region, and Mexico are annotated for the purposes of generic and stratigraphic comparison. Wright collated many of the data; cross references are abundant.
The bibliography is presented as prepared by Wright; editing was held to a minimum. No additional check was made of the source materials for accuracy of the data--for example, spellings of fossil names. The stratigraphic nomenclature is that: used in the reports cited and may or may not conform to that currently accepted by the U.S. Geological Survey. A list of non-annotated references cited in the annotations was added.
