Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
• Detrital zircon and rutile are the dominant U and REE carriers in the Athabasca sandstones • Textural and compositional evidence indicates U and REE were leached from zircon and rutile • The U and REE in the unconformity-related U deposits were mainly derived from the basin • Much more U and REE were released from zircon and rutile than found in the deposits
