Peneconcordant uranium deposits cover a widespread and important type of uranium deposits that have a common and distinctive form, namely, nearly concordant to the bedding of the host rock. The term describes the form of the numerous and highly productive uranium deposits in sedimentary rocks of the Colorado Plateau, Wyoming, North and South Dakota, and Texas. The term is readily applicable to field usage. (J. E.D.)
