Abstract
Fission track dating of quartz from a quartz vein containing gold has been carried out by using artificial heavy quartz grains and the chemi cal etching technique of quartz has been improved with in 65% NaOH. Fi ssion track ages of five quartz samples are from 100 Ma to 200 Ma. Mea nwhile, uranium concentrations and microdistribution in a quartz vein containing gold have also been analyzed in this work.
