Uranium Deposits of the World, in three volumes, comprises an
unprecedented compilation of data and descriptions of the uranium
regions in Asia, USA, Latin America and Europe structured by
countries. With this third, the Europe volume, Uranium Deposits of
the World presents the most extensive data collection of the set.
It covers about 140 uranium regions in more than 20 European
countries with nearly 1000 mentioned uranium deposits. Each country
and region receives an analytical overview followed by the
geologically- and economically-relevant synopsis of the individual
regions and fields. The presentations are structured in three major
sections: (a) location and magnitude of uranium regions, districts,
and deposits, (b) principal features of regions and districts, and
(c) detailed characteristics of selected ore fields and deposits.
This includes sections on geology, alteration, mineralization,
shape and dimensions of deposits, isotopes data, ore control and
recognition criteria, and metallogenesis. Beside the main European
uranium regions, for example in the Czech Republic, Eastern
Germany, France, the Iberian Peninsula or Ukraine, also small
regions an districts to the point of singular occurrences of
interest are considered. This by far the most comprehensive
presentation of European uranium geology and mining would not be
possible without the author's access to extensive information
covering the countries of the former Eastern Bloc states, which was
partly not previously available. Abundantly illustrated with
information-laden maps and charts throughout, this reference work
is an indispensable tool for geologists, mining companies,
government agencies, and others with an interest in European key
natural resources. A great help for the reader's orientation are
the substantial bibliography of uranium-related publications and
the indices, latter containing about 3900 entries in the
geographical part alone. The three volumes of Uranium Deposits of
the World are available as a set or individually. Also accessible
(as a set and separate volumes) as an eReference on
SpringerLink.com. The originally planned fourth volume with
Australia, Oceania, and Africa will not be published after the
author suddenly deceased.
