Description
DH-1a is intended as a replacement for DH-1 of which the stock is exhausted. It is ore typical of the property of Denison Mines Limited in Elliot Lake, Ontario, and is a sericitic feldspathic quartzite containing approximately 10% pyrite. The radioactive minerals are uraninite and brannerite and possibly traces of monazite and uranothorite. The bulk material was dry-ground to minus 74 µm, blended and bottled in 200-g units. The homogeneity of DH-1a was confirmed using the volumetric-umpire method for uranium.
Certified values
The certified value of uranium is the mean of 45 determinations by the volumetric-umpire method performed at CANMET to confirm the homogeneity of DH-1a. In addition, a sufficient number of results for uranium were submitted by nine laboratories to give a consensus value of 0.260% and 95% confidence intervals of ± 0.003%. Herein, instrumental techniques, X-ray fluorescence and neutron activation analysis, were predominant. The consensus value for thorium is the unweighted mean of 66 accepted analytical determinations by 12 laboratories. Methods included colorimetry, X-ray fluorescence, neutron activation analysis and radiometry.
Instruction for use
The recommended values for DH-1 a pertain to an "as is" basis.
