Information Circular 8579: Radiation Halos and Hydrocarbon Reservoirs: A Review

Details

• Personal Author:
  Armstrong, Frederick E. ; Heemstra, Raymond J.
• Description:
  This Bureau of Mines publication reviews 237 papers on radiometric prospecting, which is the measurement of naturally occurring radioactivity in the earth's surface and its application to petroleum and natural gas exploration. Many theories and documented surveys are listed in both support and refutation of this reported phenomenon, and the Bureau of Mines is conducting research to obtain direct field information in order to determine the statistical credibility of a radiometric method of predicting petroleum accumulation.
