Dans le granite de Saint-Sylvestre (Limousin), la partie orientale est considérée comme stérile : il est possible qu'elle n'ait été mise au jour qu'après le Permien, période considérée comme étant en France la période métallogénique majeure pour l'uranium, lors d'épisodes d'érosion ayant enlevé les roches métamorphiques situées au toit du granite. [...] Si le Permien a été favorable pour la formation des gîtes uranifères, c'est peut-être à cause d'un climat aride qui a permis la formation de véritables calcretes. 4, record 1, French, - m%C3%A9tallog%C3%A9nique
