Kintyre
Australia
In addition to radiometrics, IP can be useful in targeting sediment hosted uranium mineralization.
|
The Kintyre Uranium deposit is located 70 km south of Telfer, Western Australia. The deposit consists of massive pitchblende veins and minor disseminated pitchblende hosted by banded metachert. |

 |
An airborne magnetic-radiometric survey detected elevated counts for K, U and Th at the Kintyre location. |
 |
Profiles for three adjacent lines over the area clearly show the radiometric anomalies. |
 |
A ground IP survey detected resistivity and chargeability highs due to the disseminated sulphides in the chert associated with uranium. |
