“…The spatial correlation of the uranium deposits with zones of graphite, and the high conductivities of the graphitic zones relative to both the metamorphic rocks of the basement and the sedimentary rocks of the basin, has meant that electromagnetic techniques have been the favoured methods when prospecting for further deposits. This continues to be the case, with, for example, the use of new airborne time-domain electromagnetic systems to efficiently investigate the upper 200 or 300 m of the subsurface around the edges of the Athabasca Basin (Cristall and Brisbin, 2006), and the use of audio-magnetotellurics (AMT) to investigate down to a couple of kilometres towards the centre of the Basin (Craven et al, 2003;Leppin and Goldak, 2005;Tuncer et al, 2006).…”
