Uranium Ore Deposits

This volume provides an overview of uranium geology which includes data characteristics for uranium deposits and a synthesis of this data in the form of a typological classification of uranium deposits. These are supported by more detailed descriptions of selected uranium districts and deposits. The book is separated into five chapters: a summary of world uranium resources and production; uranium geochemistry; the principal aspects of the genesis of uranium; the principal recognition criteria, dimensions and metallogenetic aspects of identified types of deposits; and selected uranium districts and deposits.
