OSTI ID:5367852

The results of a high-sensitivity, aerial gamma-ray spectrometer and magnetometer survey of the Fort Sumner, two degree quadrangle, New Mexico, are presented. Instrumentation and methods are described in Volume I of this final report. The work was done by Carson Helicopters Inc., and Carson Helicopters was assisted in the interpretation by International Exploration, Inc. The work was performed for the US Department of Energy - National Uranium Resource Evaluation (NURE) Program. A total of 139 statistically significant eU anomalies were identified in this quadrangle. Of this number 31 were considered to be of sufficient intensity to warrant field investigations. Many of these anomalies appear to be wholly, or in part, associated with various Quarternary surficial deposits, Permian sediments (specifically the Fourmile Draw Member of the San Andreas Formation), and the area around Rough Mountain.
