- Type
- Unconformity uranium
Deposit of the high-temperature redox category in the study of uranium ore concentrates (yellowcake) from 40 mines. Uranium reduced at high temperature (igneous or metamorphic processes): clustered 238U/235U, indistinguishable from the non-redox conglomerates (common mean 137.833 ± 0.034, 2SD), and 235U/234U close to secular equilibrium (Brennecka et al., 2010). Indicative coordinates.
