Hansen deposit, Fremont County (uranium):

The Hansen deposit in the Tallahas Creek area of Fremont County is once again being examined for its uranium potential. In November 2004, Quincy Gold Corp. announced it had entered into letter of intent for an agreement with NZ Uranium LLC to explore the Hansen deposit. A resource of approximately 30 million pounds of uranium was outlined at Hansen in the late 1970s by Cyprus Mines Corp. Cyprus had designed an open pit mine and milling facility capable of processing 4,500 tons of ore per day and yielding 2 million pounds of uranium per year. It was projected to employ 550 people by 1983. The plan was abandoned, however, in 1980 when the price of uranium crashed due to decreased demand for nuclear fuel after the Three Mile Island incident. Quincy Gold is evaluating Hansen as a potential site for in situ
solution mining.
