Pilot Plant Fluorination of Uranium Fuel Elements by Bromine Trifluoride

Report issued by the Brookhaven National Laboratory discussing methods of processing reactor fuels such as uranium. As stated in the objective, "the primary objective of the project was to determine the effect of temperature, solution composition, and flow rate on the dissolving time for natural uranium slugs of varying history" (p. 2). This report includes tables, illustrations, and photographs.

Exploratory drilling on Frey Point Mesa, White Canyon area, San Juan County, Utah

The principal objectives of the exploratory diamond drilling programs conducted by the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission on Frey Point Mesa were to determine the presence of minable uranium ore; to study the lithologic and structural characteristics of paleostream channels and their relation to ore occurrence; and to accumulate geologic information essential for an appraisal of the uranium resources of the area.
