Reconnaissance for uranium-bearing lignite in the Ekalaka Lignite Field, Carter County, Montana
James R. Gill
1954, Trace Elements Investigations 452
Uranium-bearing lignite beds 1.5 to 8 feet thick occur in the Fort Union formation of the southern part of the Ekalaka Hills, Carter County, Mont. Data from surface outcrops indicate that an area of about 1,400 acres is underlain by 16,500,000 tons of uranium-bearing lignite containing 700 tons of uranium....

Uranium-bearing lignite in southwestern North Dakota
George W. Moore, Robert E. Melin, Roy C. Kepferle
1954, Trace Elements Investigations 463
Uranium-bearing lignite was mapped and sampled in the Bullion Butte, Sentinel Butte, HT Butte, and Chalky Buttes areas in southwestern North Dakota. The uraniferous lignite occurs at several stratigraphic positions in the Sentinel Butte member of the Fort Union formation of Paleocene age. A total of 261 samples were collected...
