In view of world analogy for the favorable sites of Uranium mineralization in the sedimentary Proterozoic rocks, the ENE-WSW trending Narmada-Son Lienament/ fractured basement of Proterozoic Arachean age overlain unconformably by the Gondwana Super Group sandstones of Mesozoic to Lower Permian age in District Surguja offers an ideal site for the Uranium mineralization. Some of the favourable factors, namely, the nature of basement rocks present in the area, surrounding rocks, type of environment which favours the mineralization and tectonic features etc have been discussed.
