Abstract: | Uranium-poor bituminous coal-channel samples (mean and standard deviation 0.51±0.99 ppm) from the Sydney Coalfield in Nova Scotia show top and bottom enrichment trends as are known from German, British and American coals of Upper Carboniferous age (Breger and Schopf, 1955; Francis, 1961; Gluskoter et al., 1977). The trends appear to be related to sedimentary processes rather than to secondary geochemical enrichment effects on the coal. |
