Determination of uranium, thorium and rare-earth

2011-11-10  Zircon is an accessory mineral, which occurs at low concentrations in a wide variety of rocks and is a host for hafnium, rare-earth elements (REE) and radio active elements like uranium and thorium. The presence of uranium in zircon has led to its increased use in the age determination of rocks. Zirconium is also considered as a strategic, hi-tech element because of

Thorium-to-Uranium Ratios as Indicators of Sedimentary

The thorium-to-uranium ratios in sedimentary rocks range from less than 0.02 to more than 21. Ratios in many oxidized continental deposits are above 7, whereas most marine deposits have ratios much below 7. Thus, the thorium-to-uranium ratio varies with sedimentary processing and depositional environment.

Mineral Sands: NORM Appendix World Nuclear Association

Western Australian mineral sands deposits contain up to 10% heavy minerals, of which 1-3% is monazite. This in turn typically contains 5-7% of radioactive thorium and 0.1-0.3% of uranium, which is barely radioactive. However, if decay products of either are present in the minerals, the radioactivity levels may be significant when the monazite

For a zircon, the crystal structure closes at a depth of around 6 kilometers when the rock hits about 180 degrees Celsius. That’s when helium—a byproduct of the radioactive decay of uranium and thorium—starts to accumulate inside the zircon.
