The Fort Wayne quadrangle covers approximately 7000 square miles of area in Indiana, Ohio, and Michigan within the Midwestern Physiographic Province. Within this area, a moderately thick lower Paleozoic section overlies the Precambrian basement. Wisconsinan glacial material and lacustrine sediments comprise the majority of the surficial material. A search of available literature revealed no known uranium deposits. A total of seventy-four uranium anomalies were detected and are discussed briefly in this report. Radiometric data appears to reflect the glacial history of the area. None of the anomalies were considered significant and all appear to be related to cultural features. Magnetic data appears to be in agreement with existing structural interpretations of the area.
