Book Synopsis 236U In-Situ Production in High-Grade Mineralization at Cigar Lake, Athabasca Basin, Northern Saskatchewan by : Maria Stefanescu
Download or read book 236U In-Situ Production in High-Grade Mineralization at Cigar Lake, Athabasca Basin, Northern Saskatchewan written by Maria Stefanescu and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canada accounts for 15% of the world's uranium production (World Nuclear Association). The Athabasca Basin in northern Saskatchewan Canada contains a number of high grade, uranium ore deposits which occur at, or immediately below, an unconformity between Archean and Paleoproterozoic metasediments and intrusive rocks and overlying Proterozoic sandstones. The uranium ores are largely composed of high concentrations of uraninite and Pitchblende with naturally occurring 238U/235U ratios. U- 236 (half-life of 23.42 Myr) will be produced when 235U absorbs a neutron and the nucleus does not fission. Because it is so long lived, a small amount 236U can be maintained at equilibrium levels in the natural uranium ores. One of the main questions of this research is whether or not these equilibrium levels reflect higher grades or larger amounts of uranium minerals as a result of elevated neutron fluxes from 238U and subsequent neutron absorption on 235U. As well, are there other elements within the system that will absorb these neutrons, thereby reducing that which will impinge on 235U. In this study, we have estimated the amount of 236U that is produced by calculating the neutron flux from uranium and evaluating the effects of spatially related elements such as B, Sm and Gd using their elemental neutron cross- sections and abundances. In this project we have calculated and simulated theoretically the production of 236U and then test the theoretical calculations using measurements of uranium isotopes by accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS). Once we understand the factors controlling the 236U concentration, we hypothesize that the relationship between 236U and 238U can be used as a geochemical vector within uranium exploration, with the equilibrium level possibly distinguishing between primary mineralization and remobilization and reprecipitation of this U within spatially associated secondary U mineralization.
Book Synopsis Geochemical and Microbial Assessment of the Unconformity-related Uranium Prospectivity of the Hawk Reapids Area, Southeastern Athabasca Basin, Canada by :
Download or read book Geochemical and Microbial Assessment of the Unconformity-related Uranium Prospectivity of the Hawk Reapids Area, Southeastern Athabasca Basin, Canada written by and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hawk Rapids is a uranium exploration project located in the southeastern part of the Athabasca Basin, in Saskatchewan, Canada. Geochemical and mineralogical assessments of drill core from Hawk Rapids were used to evaluate the possibility of an unconformity-related uranium deposit occurring within the area. The mineral evolution of this area spans the pre-Athabasca Basin period through diagenesis to post hydrothermal alteration events. Pre-Athabasca alteration is characterized by muscovite and clinochlore while early to late diagenesis is represented by early hematite, quartz overgrowths, dickite and illite. These events were followed by dravite, both in the basement and sandstone units, kaolinite, pyrite, minor coffinite, uraninite, and siderite, which mark the hydrothermal evolution of the area. Post-hydrothermal activity is marked by the late influx of meteoric water, which resulted in formation of late kaolinite. The alteration fluids at Hawk Rapids have three distinct isotopic compositions associated with these stages of evolution. The fluid in equilibrium with pre-Athabasca alteration minerals has an isotopic composition similar to that of modified seawater or low latitude meteoric waters. Basinal brines with a meteoric component characterize the fluid in equilibrium with illite, which represents the diagenetic mineral assemblage. The precipitation of dravite in the hydrothermal stage records a mixture of both basement modified and basinal brines. Radiogenic Pb leached from the drill core samples at Hawk Rapids was derived from both internal and external sources. The breakdown of uranium-rich heavy minerals such as apatite, zircon and monazite make up the internal sources while other uranium-rich sources such as possible proximal uranium deposits constitute external sources. Microbial methane production coupled with methane consumption (microbial methane oxidation) are the major microbial activities associated with unconformity-related uranium at Hawk Rapids. The activities of these microbes are most pronounced near the unconformity where there is secondary dispersion of uranium and associated pathfinder elements that serve as nutrients. This work shows that the integration of both geochemical and mineralogical data is an effective tool in evaluating the prospectivity of an area for possible unconformity-related uranium deposits.
