Comparison of Thickness, Grade, and Depth of Radioactive Layers as Determined by Gamma-Ray Logging and by Core Sampling (open access)

Comparison of Thickness, Grade, and Depth of Radioactive Layers as Determined by Gamma-Ray Logging and by Core Sampling

Abstract: "Thickness, grade, and depth data were obtained by analyzing gamma-ray logs and core samples from 56 diamond drill holes penetrating uranium deposits in the Colorado Plateau. The data from the two methods were compared to determine variations found in gamma-ray log interpretation and chemical and radiometric analyses of the drill core. Correlations within each parameter varied among the drilling areas analyzed. Gamma-ray interpretations of grade compared to chemical analyses were within the range of -10 to +25 percent. Most depth measurements determined by gamma-ray log interpretation compared to drill core measurement were within 0.5 percent. Results of the study indicate a need for better thickness definition in both gamma-ray logging and core scanning equipment."
