Aerial radiometric and magnetic reconnaissance survey of portions of the Great Plains and Central Lowlands, Wichita Quadrangle
Description
The results of a high sensitivity aerial gamma-ray spectrometer survey of the Wichita Quadrangle, Kansas, are presented. The work was done by Texas Instruments Incorporated under Bendix Field Engineering Corporation Subcontract No. 77-072-L as part of the Department of Energy National Uranium Resource Evaluation (NURE) Program. Descriptions of instrumentation and methods are given in Volume 1 of this final report. Statistical and geologic analysis of the radiometric data revealed five uranium anomalies worthy of field checking as possible prospects. These are believed to be related either to uraniferous black shales or to radium-rich oilfield brines. The anomalies in Pc (Chase Group) and Ps (Shawnee Group) should be checked to verify that they are related to radium-rich oilfield brines
