Abstract
A number of small sandstone-type uranium deposits have been found mainly in the Menderes Massif, western Turkey, and in northeastern and central Turkey. They contain up to several hundred tonnes of uranium each at grades on the order of 0.03–0.05% U. A few small, vein or veinlike-type U occurrences are reported from the South Menderes Massif.
