It includes oil and gas field studies on Edsel, Buck Creek, and Alum Creek fields. Stratigraphy and sedimentation papers cover depositional environments of the Minnelusa and Tensleep formations in the Powder River and Bighorn basins, as well as discussions of the Spearfish and Quadrant formations. There are papers on Permian regional geology, structure in North Fork/Cellars Ranch Field and Cottonwood Creek Field, Pennsylvanian and Permian mineral resources, and hydrodynamics of the Fountain and Casper Formations.
