Scientific paper

The uranium contents and relative alpha-particle activities have been determined on thirty-nine samples from Lassen Volcanic National Park. Sodium and potassium were also determined on nineteen of the samples. Secular radioactive equilibrium to within sampling and analytical error was found between the uranium values and the radium values of other workers. The K 2 O / U ratio was found to be constant over a fourfold variation in uranium. The relative alpha-particle activity to uranium ratio was also found to be constant in the main Lassen sequence. There is some evidence that zircon crystals contain a proportion of the uranium in the Lassen volcanic rocks.
