Cast Stone Matrices Based on Basaltic Melt with Uranium-Bearing Silica Gel
The distribution of uranium between different phases of cast stone matrices fabricated by fusion of basalt and uranium-bearing SiO 2 -based collectors was investigated. It was found that matrices created by fusion of basalt with SiO 2 consist of glass, quartz, and spinel as the main phases. A study...

consist of glass, quartz, and spinel as the main phases. A study of the physicochemical properties of collectors based on 30 wt % UO

after its thermal treatment, as well as from a basaltic melt with SiO
