Barringer Hill


Roger Whatley
 



I live not to far from Lake Buchanan in Central Texas where Barringer Hill lies inundated since 1937. Cool story to read, quite a history. That Badu family also was connected with some other radioactive mine interest in the area.

I also have a small specimen of gadolinite from Barringer Hill which I acquired in Llano, about 5 years ago. It is very mildly hot, registering about 300cpm on either a Ludlum 14C with a 44-7 probe, or a Lionel CD V7006b when held in very close proximity with the beta window open.

I think a guy named Frank Roberts used to guide groups prospecting for pegmatites in the? Badu hill? area.? Do you know of any public land in the Llano uplift counties that might be good for such prospecting?? I know there is precious little public lands in TX, but there are road cuts, parks, rivers etc.
