Bedrock topography modeling and calcrete-uranium prospectivity analysis of Central Erongo Region, Namibia

The Tertiary palaeodrainage system in the Namibian calcrete-uranium province is deeply buried under Cenozoic sediments (such as fluvial, alluvial and desert flash-flood terrace sediments, duricrusts and/or aeolian and fluvially reworked aeolian sands) and has no obvious surface expression, because of which, this province remains under-explored in spite of hosting the world’s largest calcrete-uranium deposit at Langer Heinrich.
