Progress in Radioactive Iron Oxides Investigations

Report discussing a study on secondary radioactive iron minerals closely associated with uranium and thorium deposits in various western states. From abstract: "A study on these radioactive 'limonites' was therefore undertaken in an attempt to find out in what form the radioactive material is present in the limonite, how it was introduced, and whether a field study of leached ferruginous cappings over uranium and thorium deposits might yield information about the depth, distribution, size, and grade of underlying ore bodies."
