- •
The upper part of the Adediya Formation (Cambro–Ordivician) exposed in southwestern Sinai.
- •
It contains mineralizations which are exceptionally rich in radioactive and rare earth elements as well as heavy metals.
- •
The recorded mineral assemblage consists of a large number of essential and accessory minerals some of which are radioactive and REE-bearing.
- •
The obtained field and laboratory data were implemented to determine the sedimentary history of the host rocks.
