Regional Report: Kvanefjeld Uranium deposit, Kuannersuit (Kvanefjeld) plateau, Ilimaussaq complex, Narsaq, Kitaa (West Greenland) Province, Greenland

The uranium mineralization is largely associated with the lujavrite, partly altered lavas, hydrothermal analcime veins and pegmatites. Most of the uranium is contained in Steenstrupine and occurs as a disseminated mineral in the lujavrite. Ref.: - Wyatt J. (2007): The Kvanefjeld Project, El 2005/17, Geological Investigation Pty Ltd.
