Abstract
Since 1974 the Grand Junction, Colorado, Office, U.S. Department of Energy, through its National Uranium Resource Evaluation (NURE) program, has been conducting aerial surveys over various portions of the United States. The multivariate structure of the data suggests that statistical techniques of multivariate analysis are appropriate. Principal components analysis provides immediate insight into the structure of multivariate data and was applied to aerial data collected in the Lubbock and Plainview NTMS quadrangles. The components appear to lend themselves to an interpretation which sheds light on the geological history of the study area and aid in the identification of areas favorable to uranium deposition. The use of this technique may result in different conclusions in various geologic environments; however, it will always allow insight into the structure of the aerial radiometric data.
