Abstract
A few small U deposits/occurrences with total in situ resources of a little less than 2 000 t U (RAR + EAR-1) are known in Iran. The bulk of these resources (∼1 400 t U) is contained in the Saghand ore field. Remaining resources are attributed to occurrences in the Gachin salt plug near Bandar Abbas (100 t U), Narigan 1 (60 t U), Khoshoumi 1 (300 t U), and Talmesi (100 t U as by product to Cu).
