A preliminary report on the rapid fluorimetric determination of uranium in low-grade ores

A simple and very rapid fluorimetric procedure is described for the determination of uranium in low-grade shale and phosphate ores. The best working range is from 0.001 to about 0.04 percent U. The procedure employs batch extraction of uranium nitrate by ethyl acetate, using aluminum nitrate as the salting agent, prior to the visual fluorimetric estimation. The procedure is especially designed to

Stratigraphy and structure of the area of the upper Meade River, Alaska

The stratigraphic evidence in the upper Meade River area includes zones B to D of the Nanushuk group (Cretaceous). Zones B and C are not differentiated in mapping and description. South of the Meade River 2,100 feet of zones B-C and 1,500 feet of zone D are exposed. North of the fault zone along the Meade River, the only rocks present, estimated not over 1,000 feet thick, are zone D beds which may

Stratigraphy and structure of the Okpikruak and Kiruktagiak Rivers area, Alaska

Navy Oil Unit Party 4, during the summer field season of 1949, examined the surface geology of the area of the Okpikruak and Kiruktagiak Rivers. The party consisted of six men: two geologists, two field assistants, a weasel mechanic, and a cook. Three weasels were used for transportation in the field.The area covered is bounded on the west by the Okpikruak River, on the east by the Chandler River,

An improved fluorimeter for the determination of uranium in fluoride melts

The Model R fluorimeter has been modified to increase its stability and sensitivity. The new instrument* is about ten times as sensitive as the original fluorimeter, but it can also be employed conveniently at a sensitivity level comparable to or less than that of the Model R fluorimeter. *The modified fluorimeter described here was developed in the latter half of 1948 and has since been in const
