Uranium determinations by induced fission track analysis were done rapidly utilizing a discharge counter instead of visual counting. Sediments, rocks, freeze-dried river salts (with Na 2 CO 3 carrier) and one freeze-dried sea salt were analyzed by this technique. Comparisons with samples whose uranium concentrations were determined independently indicate that the method is accurate. The uranium concentration in deep-sea sediments varies widely with oceanic depth and depth in the core ranging from 0.5-40 ppm U on a calcium carbonate-free basis. Seventeen river water samples range between <0.01 and 1.2 g U/l with an average value of 0.27 g U/l.
