Relationships of calcium carbonate to lithology and vanadium-uranium deposits in Salt Wash sandstone of southwestern Colorado
Norbert Lee Archbold
1956, Open-File Report 56-2
This study was made to determine whether any relationship exists between lithology or vanadium-uranium deposits and calcium carbonate content in the Salt Wash member of the Morrison formation of Jurassic age. Results indicate that altered gray-green mudstone contains less carbonate than does unaltered red-brown mudstone. No significant difference exists between...
