Mounana is situated in the southeast part of Gabon in the Franceville District of the Haut-Ogooue region. The geology of the region is outlined, and the methods used in the radioprospection of the region are discussed. The ore deposits are essentially urano-vanadiferous mineralizations of Francevillite and black oxides. It is estimated that the reserves amount to approximately a million tons of ore with an average uranium content of 4%. The developmental program planned and the technical and human problems involved in the program are briefly discussed. (J.S.R.)
