Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6090267

Fourty-four uranium anomalies meet the minimum statistical requirements as defined in Volume I. These anomalies are tabulated and are shown on the Uranium Anomaly Interpretation Map. Potassium (%K), equivalent Uranium (ppM eU), equivalent Thorium (ppM eT), eU/eT, eU/K, eT/K, and magnetic pseudo-contour maps are presented in Appendix E. Stacked Profiles showing geologic strip maps along each flight-line, together with sensor data, and ancillary data are presented in Appendix F. All maps and profiles were prepared on a scale of 1/250,000, but have been reduced to 1/500,000 for presentation in Volume II. Anomalies No. 1 to No. 13 are over areas underlain by the Tertiary Fort Union formation (Tfutr and Tfulw). The lignites in this formation are commonly uranium-bearing. Anomaly No. 14 is over an area underlain by Recent terrace deposits (Qt). Anomalies No. 15 to No. 18, and No. 21 are over areas underlain by the Tertiary Fort Union formation (Tfutr).
