The distribution of elements at Koongarra

Creators

Description

Forty-eight rock samples from 3 drill holes were analysed for many elements using PIXE-PIGME, XRF and DNAA. The samples represent three vertical profiles through different zones of the Koongarra site; the primary mineralized zone (M1); the secondary mineralized zone (M2) and the 'adsorption' zone (M3). As a result of this study, a database of averaged uranium concentrations over 5 m sections in the weathered zone has been prepared and based on this, a plan of uranium distribution is now available. 9 refs., 3 tabs., 2 figs
