BIBLIOGRAPHY OF THE GEOLOGY OF THE GREEN RIVER FORMATION, 

COLORADO, UTAH, AND WYOMING, TO MARCH 1, 1977

By Marjorie C. Mullens 

INTRODUCTION

The Green River Formation in northwestern Colorado, 

northeastern Utah and southwestern Wyoming contains thick and 

extensive deposits of oil shale. The richest oil-shale deposits 

underlie an area of 12,000 square kilometers in the Piceance 

Creek and Uinta Basins in northwestern Colorado and northeastern 

Utah. Cashion and Donnell (1968) reported that these basins 

contain about 105 billion metric tons of oil in beds which are 

more than 4.6 meters thick and which contain an average of 5.7 

percent of oil by weight. Much additional oil is present in beds 

that contain less than 5.7 percent oil or are less than 4.6 

meters thick in these basins and in other areas underlain by the 

Green River Formation. Duncan and Swanson (1965) estimated that 

the known recoverable and marginal resources of oil in the entire 

Green River Formation are about 280 billion metric tons. In 

early 1977, however, none of the oil shale was being mined for 

oil on a commercial basis.

The Green River Formation also contains gilsonite, bituminous sands, oil and gas, and sodium and aluminum minerals. Some 

of these minerals were being produced commercially in early 1977.

This bibliography, which contains 895 references, was 

compiled to aid studies on the geology and resources of the Green 

River Formation. References included are mainly on the areal 

geology, stratigraphy, paleontology, geochemistry, and mineralogy 

of the Green River Formation, but some concern development of the 

oil-shale deposits. Recent studies also concern the effects that 

an oil-shale industry will have on the environment.

The bibliography is arranged in three parts: U.S. 

Geological Survey reports on the Green River Formation, Colorado, 

Utah, and Wyoming; reports by U.S. Geological Survey authors on 

geology of the Green River Formation, Colorado, Utah, and 

Wyoming, in non-U.S. Geological Survey publications; and selected 

reports by non-U.S. Geological Survey authors on the geology of 

the Green River Formation, Colorado, Utah, and Wyoming. The two 

parts by Geological Survey authors are as complete as possible, 

but the other part includes only selected references. For 

reports in which mention of the Green River Formation is only 

incidental, brackets are used to indicate the pages pertinent to 

the Green River Formation.
