A report, with accompanying maps, showing distinguishable lithologic units and occurrences of uranium in outcrops in the Pumpkin Buttes area of the Powder River Basin
From introduction: Geologic mapping was done in the Pumpkin Buttes area, Johnson and Campbell Counties, Wyoming, during the summer of 1952 on behalf of the Atomic Energy Commission. The objectives of the work were: to find uranium deposits, to study their distribution, habit, and occurrence, and to use such knowledge as guides in outlining areas favorable for mineralization.
From abstract: Uranium minerals were discovered in the Pumpkin Buttes area, Campbell and Johnson Counties by the U. S. Geological Survey in October 1951. From June to November 1952, an area of about 750 square miles was examined for uranium deposits, and 211 localities with abnormally high radioactivity were found; uranium minerals are visible at 121 of these localities.
Report discussing the investigation of 750 square miles of land in Wyoming aimed at locating uranium deposits. Information regarding the area, uranium deposits, mineralogy, and results of the exploration are included.
