ABSTRACT
A mobile exercise cage that expands the quantity and improves the quality of the space available to singly caged adult Vervet monkey males is described. It was easily fitted into an existing caging system and the addition of a resident consort female made it possible for the males to mate and have regular social contact.

In applying non-destructive neutron-activation analysis for gold and uranium in spiked low-grade ore samples, the following extrapolated unspiked concentrations were measured: 0.27(8) +/- 0.01(5) ppm gold (chemical assay: 0.20(2) +/- 0.02(0) ppm gold); 25.1 +/- 1.1 ppm uranium (chemical assay value: 19.5 +/-2.0 ppm uranium). Different approaches to the fitting of results, and the influence of spiking non-uniformity, are discussed.
