Uranium mining in Arizona : ウィキペディア英語版 | Uranium mining in Arizona Uranium mining in Arizona has taken place since 1918. Prior to the uranium boom of the late 1940s, uranium in Arizona was a byproduct of vanadium mining of the mineral carnotite. ==Carrizo Mountains== Uranium mining started in 1918 in the Carrizo Mountains as a byproduct of vanadium mining. The district is in Apache County, in the northeast corner of Arizona. The uranium and vanadium occur as carnotite in sandstone of the Salt Wash member of the Morrison Formation (Jurassic). Production stopped in 1921. Another period of mining took place from 1941 to 1966, producing 360,000 pounds (160 metric tons) of uranium oxide (U3O8).〔Robert B. Scarborough (1981) ''Radioactive Occurrences and Uranium Production in Arizona'', US Department of Energy, part 3, GJBX-143-(81).〕
