Read More2011.11.10 Zircon is an accessory mineral, which occurs at low concentrations in a wide variety of rocks and is a host for hafnium, rare-earth elements (REE) and radio active elements like uranium and thorium. The presence of uranium in zircon has led to its increased use in the age determination of rocks. Zirconium is also considered as a strategic, hi-tech element
Read More2024.4.8 Thereafter, uranium and thorium concentrations in zircon were measured by NAA and revealed that zircon contained 94-141 ppm uranium and 127-506 ppm thorium. Therefore, this noticeable amount of uranium and thorium in zircon should be taken in consideration during any mining attempt of the placer minerals present in Cox's Bazar beaches.
