Description

The study shows the petrogenesis of San Ramon granite by the interpretation of Rare Earth Elements (REE) analyzed from the metallogenic understanding of the presence of uranium. The preliminary results indicate that the intrusive has originated from a very distinct crustal magma source of per-aluminous alkaline composition; constituting the negative anomaly of Europium (Eu) element confirming the cortical origin of granite; accordingly, uranium mineralization represented by torbernite, from a source of per-aluminous alkaline composition. The REE help to establish a genetic relationship with granite, which was placed in the late stages of magmatism, while uranium has originated from the same granite by hydrothermal incipient process. SR-1.1 sample presents the largest partition of REE in the diagram and is related to the Th and U amounts in facie red granite. (author).
