Structural Controls of Uranium Mineralization in the Basement of the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan, Canada by Antonio Benedicto, Maher Abdelrazek, Patrick Ledru, Cameron MacKay, Dwayne Kinar

“…The occurrence of unconformity-related uranium mineralization requires the combination of three components: fluids with the right composition, geochemical traps with the right agents that produce precipitation, and structural traps with the right geometry. In the Athabasca Basin unconformity-related uranium deposits, while basinal brines are commonly accepted as the principal mineralized fluids and graphite and gases (CH4, CO2, and H2S) are well known as the reductants, only few case studies describing structural traps are published. …”

Assembled Nanostructured Architectures Studied By Grazing Incidence X-Ray Scattering by Davide Altamura, Teresa Sibillano, Dritan Siliqi, Liberato De Caro, Cinzia Giannini

“…Further examples of grazing incidence studies as performed by the authors with a table‐top set‐up are reported: a GISAXS study of 3D iron oxide nanocrystal superlattices, showing the importance of modelling in order to obtain structural information from data; a combined small/wide angle scattering (GISAXS/GIWAXS) study of 3D PbS nanocrystal superlattices; and a GIWAXS study of P3HT nanofibres, showing how the ordering at the molecular and atomic length scales can be obtained by exploring different angular ranges in the same grazing incidence geometry. Finally, selected examples of in situ GISAXS studies, performed with synchrotron radiation sources, are described.…”
