He retired in January of 1995, continuing on into his 80s, as a Scientist Emeritus, completing reports related to his earlier field work. Specific projects in which Dan was involved over the course of his career included thorium reconnaissance and geologic mapping at Mountain Pass, California (1951-52); uranium exploration in the Slick Rock district of the Colorado Plateau (1953-58); geologic mapping in the Egan Range, Nevada (1958-60); mapping beryllium in volcanic rocks in the western U.S. (1961-65); serving as Chief of the Heavy Metals Branch (1966-69) and the Branch of Central Mineral Resources (1970-72); completing geologic studies of the Great Basin (1973-74); holding a temporary-duty assignment in Thailand, as well as preparing a report on the 'Geology and Mineral Resources of Thailand' and geologic mapping in the southern Toquima Range, Nevada (1974-95). In June of 1967, Dan and his colleague Barney Poole discovered large, high-grade deposits of bedded barite in East Northumberland Canyon in the northern Toquima Range.
