Uraniferous Asphaltine in Moore and Potter Counties, Texas

This report presents data regarding the origin, occurrence, distribution, and relative abundance of uraniferous asphaltite in the Red Cave Formation and "Panhandle lime" from Moore County and portions of Potter County, Texas. It is a brief survey that was based largely upon (1) microscopic examination of drill cuttings stored at the Well Sample and Core Library, University of Texas Balcones Research Center, and (2) megascopic examination of several cores loaned to the Bureau of Economic Geology by the U.S. Bureau of Mines - Branch of Helium Operations, Maynard Oil Company, and Colorado Interstate Gas Company.
