In June 1979, the federal government decided to encourage uranium exploration by awarding a grant of CHF 1.5 million for the period 1980-1984. During 1980 and 1981 about 1 000 m of galleries were excavated for prospecting by a private company in the Hercynian Massif of Aiguilles Rouges and the surrounding gneisses. The limited work so far has not allowed a clear picture of the factors controlling the mineralisation, which is of low grade and disseminated in an area which is geologically very complex.
