Notes

  1. 1.

    Although the present U oxide phase is described as uraninite it is probably the pitchblende variety as can be deduced from similar mineralization in the Novoveská Huta deposit described earlier.

  2. 2.

    The geological setting of the Kurišková deposit as well as other deposits in the North Gemer Zone resembles to some extent that of volcanic-type uranium deposits described in Russian literature such as U-Mo deposits in the Streltsovsk Caldera in the Russian Federation or in the Mardai (or Dornod) district in Mongolia (for details see Dahlkamp 2009, Uranium Deposits of the World: Asia). Therefore metallogenetic concepts for these deposits may also give a clue for any genetic modeling for the Kurišková deposit.
