Abstract: | Most available classifications of uranium deposits are based on the characteristics of the host rocks or on the morphology
of the ore deposits. The aim of the present paper is to propose the basis for a genetic classification of these deposits.
After a short introduction on the geochemical behavior of uranium in fluids and silicate melts and on the main uranium fractionation
mechanisms operating in uranium-rich peraluminous, metaluminous, and peralkaline melts, the most recent metallogenic models
of the main types of uranium deposits are shortly reviewed. |
