Mount Painter
South Australia, northern Flinders Ranges (Mount Painter Inlier), Australia
UraniumU
- Type
- Uraniferous hematite breccia complex (magmatic)
Ore from the Smithsonian Institution collection (Cowan and Adler, 1976 suite) analysed by Bopp et al. (2009); δ238U relative to IRMM REIMP-18A. Hematite breccia; δ238U changed with leaching time (U held in several phases), hence total dissolution; -0.52 ‰. Indicative coordinates.
