Uranium from Oil, Oil from Uranium - Examples from the Frome Basin, South Austalia and Jaffna Peninsula , Sri Lanka

 

Frome Basin South Australia 







A processed satellite image of the Cauvery Basin. That
part of the Jaffna Peninsula that is surrounded by oil exploration block C3 is at  the right bottom corner of the image. The parts that are brighter (ie to the left of the peninsula) suggest the presence of uranium, possibly caused by hydrocarbon microseepages from the underlying basin. The coincidence of uranium and hydrocarbon is a known and well documented phenomenon, even if often ignored.
