Uranium-rich diagenetic fluids provide the key to unconformity-related uranium mineralization in the Athabasca Basin

The Proterozoic Athabasca Basin is well known for its unusually large-tonnage and high-grade ‘unconformity-related’ uranium (U) deposits, however, explanations for the basin-wide U endowment have not been clearly identified. Previous studies indicate that U-rich brines with up to ~600 ppm U and vari...
