Aerial Radiometric and Magnetic Reconnaissance Survey of the Eagle-Dillingham Area, Alaska Fairbanks Quadrangle

摘要

The results of a high-sensitivity aerial gamma-ray spectrometer and magnetometer survey of the Fairbanks Quadrangle, Alaska, are presented. Instrumentation and methods are described in Volume 1 of this final report. Statistical and geological analysis of the radiometric data revealed two uranium anomalies worthy of field checking as possible prospects. One is located over Quaternary swamp deposits and may reflect the accumulation of uranium in peaty material. The second anomaly is associated with the Mississippian Totatlanika Schist and may reflect a deposit similar to the Liberty Bell Mine in the south-central part of the quadrangle.
