Abstract

In 1975 the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the Old West Regional Commission, prepared a plan of study (U.S. Geological Survey, 1975) for evaluating the water-supply potential of limestone of the Madison Group and associated rocks. To obtain better subsurface hydrologic and geologic information it was recognized that Madison Group test wells would have to be drilled. This report tabulates the results of in situ bulk density and porosity determinations from borehole gravity data obtained in the first of these wells, test well no. 1.
