Uranium distribution in rocks by fission-track registration in lexan plastic.
When Lexan plastic is iused to register fission tracks from thermal neutron-induced fission of uranium in rocks, a print of the rock texture is formed on the plastic surface after chemical etching. This print allows positive, rapid location of uranium-bearing phases in the rock and accurate determination of uranium abundances.
