102 samples of low-grade uranium ore from 70 drill holes at Kvanefjeld, Ilimaussaq alkaline intrusion, South Greenland were studied by means of autoradiography, fission-track investigations, microscopy, microprobe analyses and uraniumleaching experiments. The principal U-Th bearing mineral steenstru...
