“…Its similar composition and intrusive position within the Bolus suggest a genetic relationship. Studies by Collier (1985) suggest that the Trimble is a latestage differentiate of its parent Bolus Granite. This late-stage granite is enriched in uranium, which forms ore deposits in places where the granite is broken by faults and fractures.…”

“…Schmitt and Raymond (1977) reported ages of 10 Ma and 9 Ma for different phases of the stock. It has close genetic ties to mineralization in the district, having supplied both metals and heat to convection systems in surrounding rocks (Collier, 1985;Schmitt and Raymond, 1977).…”

“…In fact, the Trimble Granite is host to a relatively large vein-type uranium deposit, with perhaps as much as 10,000 tonnes U 3 0 8 (Collier, 1985). The age of the deposit is unknown, but it is probably considerably younger than the emplacement of the granites.…”

“…Mass-balance calculations indicate that these refractory accessory minerals are capable of accounting for the entire uranium content of the rocks (Collier, 1985).…”
