Botanical prospecting for uranium

ID: botanical-prospecting-for-uranium

Botanical prospecting for uranium is a method of exploring for natural uranium deposits by studying the vegetation in specific areas. This technique is based on the premise that certain plants can absorb and accumulate metals and minerals from the soil, including uranium. By analyzing the concentration of uranium in plant tissues, researchers can infer the presence of nearby uranium deposits in the soil or underlying rock formations.
