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. …”
