Aerial radiometric and magnetic reconnaissance survey of portions of the Great Plains and Central Lowlands, Dodge City Quadrangle

Description

The results of a high-sensitivity aerial gamma-ray spectrometer and magnetometer survey of the Dodge City Quadrangle, Kansas, are presented. Instrumentation and methods are described in Volume 1 of this final report. The work was done under Bendix Field Engineering Corporation Subcontract No. 77-072-L, as part of the U.S. Department of Energy National Uranium Resource Evaluation (NURE) Program. Statistical and geological analysis of the radiometric data revealed 27 uranium anomalies worthy of field checking. Nearly all of these are known or suspected to be associated with the Ogallala Formation. The Ogallala and Dakota Formations are thought to offer the best possibilities for economic uranium deposits in this region
