Uranium Discovery

Talked by Speaker
Chances for finding uranium
In Oregon are as good as any
where else, according to Max
Schafer, geologist for the Ore
gon State Bureau of Mines.
Speaking at a meeting of the
Northwest Mining Council, Sha-
fer stated that the geological f or
" mations in Oregon are of approx
imately the same age as those
in the Colorado plateau country
where uranium was discovered
recently.
Although Oregon has a type
of rock entirely different than
that found in the Colorado pla
teau, it has been discovered that
uranium may occur in ' almost
: any type of rock, the speaker
said. : - ''
Similar Formations
Shafer pointed out that uran
ium has been discovered in ot
tonite rock in Washington, and
noted that formations similar to
this type of rock are located in
the Ashland area.
Uranium has been found on
rhyolite deposits near Bakers-
field, Calif., which are similar
to deposits occuring in central
Oregon. Old lake beds around
Klamath Falls and Lakeview
are similar to locations where
, the valuable mineral has been
found in other California areas.
' Uranium also has been found
in Nevada in formations much
'. like those in adjacent formations
in eastern Oregon, Shafer said.
He declared that many areas
prospected by the Atomic Ener
gy commission and pronounced
- to be unlikely areas for uranium
have produced good desposits.
Old gold and copper mine dumps
are - good places to prospect, he
said.
Mar be Low Grade
The reason for a low reading,
. or none at all, from a. sample
taken from, a location showing
', a good reading on a counter is
that the volume of the body of
ore may be of so low a grade
that the small sample, removed
from the area, will show no re
action, Shafer said. ;
- Uranium is not radioactive,
the geologist stated. It is the dis
integration products which cause
reactions on a counter. For this
reason, he said, it is possible
to obtain a good reading from
an outcropping where ground
water may have washed the ur-
anium out of the rock.
'. Shafer also pointed out that
it has been established that a
. Geiger counter is not reliable
when temperatures are low.
More than 50 per cent of the
recent uranium discoveries have
" been" made from instruments
; carried by plane, he said.
