Gravel, pebble, and sand beds in the Koketsuyama and Nishiobora areas in Fukuoka-mura, Ena-gun, Gifu prefecture were surveyed for uranium deposits. The quartzporphyry gravels and pebbles in the Koketsuyama area are chiefly derived from the Tertiary formation (Pliocene) which is distributed in that area but not in the Nishiobora area. The main constituent heavy minerals are ilmenite. cassiterite, and radioactive minerals such as monazite. endlite, naegnite, and fergusonite, whith are also common in the other areas of the Naegi district. The quantitative proportion of each heavy mineral is different in each area. The abnormal abundance of ilmenite is charactoristic in the Koketsuyama area. (auth)
