Forty-two uranium anomalies meet the minimum statistical requirements as defined in Volume I. These anomalies are listed and are shown on the Uranium Anomaly Interpretation Map. Potassium (%K), equivalent Uranium (ppM eU), equivalent Thorium (ppM eTh), eU/eTh, eU/K, eTh/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, No. 4 to No. 17, No. 22 to No. 23, and No. 27 to No. 30 are over areas underlain by the Radnor Till member (Qti) of the Pleistocene Glasford formation. Anomalies No. 2 and No. 3 are over areas underlain by Pleistocene Cahokia Alluvium (Qc) and the Radnor Till member (Qti) of the Glasford formation. Anomalies No. 18 to No. 21, and No. 24 are over areas underlain by the Pleistocene Equality formation (Qcl). Anomalies No. 25 and No. 26 are over areas underlain by the Equality formation (Qcl) and the Radnor Till member (Qti) of the Glasford formation. Both of these formations are of Pleistocene age. Anomalies No. 31 and No. 33 are over areas underlain by the Pleistocene Cahokia Alluvium (Qc). Anomalies No. 32, No. 34 to No. 38, and No. 40 to No. 42 are over areas underlain by the Radnor Till member (Qti) of the Pleistocene Glasford formation. Anomaly No. 39 is over an area underlain by the Radnor Till (Qti) and the Hagarstown (Qgh) members of the Pleistocene Glasford formation.
