AbstractAbstract
[en] The results of a high-sensitivity aerial gamma-ray spectrometer survey of the Beloit 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 U.S. Department of Energy National Uranium Resource Evaluation (NURE) Program. Descriptions of the instrumentation and methods are given in Volume 1 of this final report. Statistical and geologic analysis of the radiometric data revealed 19 anomalies worthy of field checking as possible prospects. Of the 19 anomalies, 13 are located in or are suspected of being associated with the Tertiary Ogallala Formation and the Cretaceous Dakota Sandstone, which are believed to have the best potential for economic deposits. Three groups of anomalies are noted: those located at or near the Tertiary-Cretaceous boundary, those found in a cluster within the Cretaceous Niobrara Formation, and those clustered in the southern part of the quadrangle in Cretaceous Carlile Shale and Dakota Sandstone
