From introduction: This is one of a series of three reports on airborne radioactivity surveys in the United States. The reports contain the 185 airborne anomaly maps issued by the U. S. Atomic Energy Commission as a result of the AEC's aerial surveying program conducted from March 1952 to June 1956; two ground reconnaissance maps of Utah also are included. Most of the reconnaissance was done in the western United States.

Discussing a general reconnaissance for uranium in the Aisen area of southern Chile.

Discussing Laboratory and field studies that show that the geologic history and environment of the Colimapu formation of central Chile differed considerably from those of the uranium-bearing Diamantiano formation of Argentina with which the Upper Colimapu has been correlated.

Discussing a two-week reconnaissance of the Lonquimay area, in south-central Chile, in which anomalies were noted in marl and in a sulfide-mineralized shear zone in continental black shales

Abstract: In 1957 uranium was discovered in the Vilcabamba district on the north flank of the Cordillera Vilcabamba, part of the Cordillera Oriental. This district contains principally small copper-nickel veins. Small lenses of uraninite occur in calcite veins cutting Permian Copacabana limestone. Uranium is most abundant marginal to centers of strongest copper-nickel mineralization. Leaching and oxidation are virtually absent because of Pleistocene glaciation. Four separate areas in which uranium has been identified are Huamanapi, Calderon, Minasmayo, and Negrillas. The Puntarayoc area, near Pampaconas, is considered a separate district. The deposits have been tested by trenching, drilling, and sampling concurrently with geologic reconnaissance mapping of the surrounding region.

Discussing water samples collected during a reconnaissance study for uranium, and the analysis of the samples.

Introduction: From the inception of the effort to utilize atomic energy Perú has been of interest as a possible source of radioactive raw materials because of its great variety and abundance of metals. Because of this and a desire at that time to develop additional supplies of uranium, a cooperative program to search for uranium deposits was initiated in 1953 by the Junta and the USAEC.

Abstract: In the Chañaral-Taltal area of northern Chile irregular replacement type iron deposits are especially well developed along a somewhat radioactive lithologic belt in andesite volcanic rocks and Cretaceous dioretic intrusions to the east of the Atacama fault, a prominent shear zone.

Abstract: A reconnaissance for uranium in and a general geologic study of the San Pedro de Atacama and Laco areas of nothern Chile disclosed no significant radioactivity in the Laco area, but near San Pedro de Atacama slight anomalies were detected in limey silts of the San Pedro formation.

Field evaluations made of uranium deposits located in and near southwestern Turkey

Introduction: The purpose of this project was to: (1) investigate the applicability of hydrogrochemical techniques to uranium exploration in the Stanley area; and (2) make a hydrogeochemical reconnaissance survey of the Basin Creek mining district and surrounding area as a step toward evaluation of the uranium potential.

Discussing the geologic setting of the Foothills Mine, Idledale District, Jefferson County, Colorado

Abstract: In August 1958 two geologists of the Instituto de Investigaciones Geológicas de Chile made a one-week reconnaissance for uranium of the Arica area in northern Chile.

The purpose of this report is to present all pertinent geologic data on an area in which relatively imprtant uranium deposits are present.

Discussing a geologic investigation undertaken near Lakeview Oregon to study the unique occurrences of uranium found there, and to provide an appraisal of the uranium recourses of the area.
