Uranium Favorability of the San Rafael Swell Area, East-Central Utah (open access)

Uranium Favorability of the San Rafael Swell Area, East-Central Utah

Purpose and scope: The purpose of this study was to delineate new areas favorable for uranium exploration in the San Rafael Swell region of east-central Utah. Emphasis was placed on the sandstone and siltstone members of the lower Chinle Formation (Triassic) and on the Salt Wash and Brushy Basin Members of the Morrison Formation (Jurassic). The White Rim Sandstone (Permian) was also studied, but not extensively. This project began in January 1976 and was completed in March 1977. Field work was conducted during the five-month period from February through June 1976.
