Geology

The Zing Corp. has recently bought a piece of land southwest of the Town of Windsor (see map attached). You have been hired to select a building
site for their new Resort based on radioactivity and environmental considerations. For background on the site selection you must describe what kind of
uranium enrichments (mineralization/deposits) are present on their property and explain how they formed.

  • Pick an area within the property boundaries to place the resort (place it on the map). Justify why you picked this location(use the internet for some of
    the information).
  • What work would you perform on the general area in order to pick the ultimate site.
  • After the resort is constructed what measures would you take to limit radon in the buildings.
  • The resort will need to drill wells for a water supply, what problems might be expected in regards to water quality? How could they be fixed
    (mitigated)?
