This is USGS Circular 547, Uranium Reserves and Progress in Exploration and Development.
Published in 1967, this is interesting reading on uranium deposits. It provides a great overview of uranium resources for anyone wanting an introduction to the topic. Quite worthwhile as a starting place for anyone wanting to advance their knowledge of this increasingly important metal. Some parts are more relevant to the period in which it was written, but much of it is as true today as it was then, since it deals with the types of sources that have provided most of our uranium throughout the twentieth century and until now.
USGS Circular 330, The Model VI Transmission Fluorimeter for the Determination of Uranium.
Here is an interesting one to throw in the mix. This short book was published in 1959 and discusses an instrument used to determine the a
mount of uranium in a sample. An interesting old document relating to the Uranium boom. Fun Stuff! I wonder if there are still any of these units lying around!
