Aerial gamma ray and magnetic survey: Nebraska/Texas survey, Texarkana Quadrangle of Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana. Final report
The Texarkana quadrangle of eastern Texas and portions of three adjacent states lies within the northern Gulf Coastal Province. The area contains portions of the Ouachita Tectonic Belt and the East Texas-Athens Embayment. The Mexia-Talco Fault Zone strikes roughly east-west through the center of the quadrangle. North of the fault zone Cretaceous platform deposits dominate, whereas Eocene neritic sediments cover most of the area south of the zone. Examination of available literature shows no known uranium deposits (or occurrences) within the quadrangle. One hundred fifty-nine groups of uranium samples were defined as anomalies and discussed briefly in this report. None were considered significant, and most appeared to be of cultural origin. Magnetic data in the quadrangle are dominantly low frequency/low amplitude wavelengths, which suggests that sources may be extremely deep.
