Red Wash

The Red Wash Property is comprised of over 700 BLM mineral claims and two Colorado state leases overlying over 35 km of strike length of the Sego Sandstones, a favourable uranium-bearing sandstone location across the district. The property contains the Urangesellschaft Uranium Showing, where uranium mineralization up to 0.035% U3O8 was discovered in outcrop with a carbonaceoustrash-bearing sandstone unit.

This historical assay was obtained from Nelson-Moore, James L., Donna Bishop Collins, and A. L. Hornbaker. “Bulletin 40 - Radioactive Mineral Occurrences of Colorado (and Bibliography).” Radioactive Minerals. Bulletin. Denver, CO: Colorado Geological Survey, Department of Natural Resources, 1978. CGS Publications. https://coloradogeologicalsurvey.org/publications/bibliography-radioactive-minerals-colorado/.

Anomalous uranium concentrations and uranium mineralization is also known to be present in carbonaceous shales, siltstones and thin lignite seams underlying the Sego Sandstone, indicating that uranium-bearing fluids have penetrated down-dip along the entire stratigraphic package.
