Geological Characteristics and Genetic Analysis of Maoling Altered Granite Type Lithium Deposit on the Southern Edge of Jiuling,Jiangxi
The Maoling lithium deposit is located on the southern edge of Jiuling in Jiangxi province,belonging to the Jiuling mineralization sub zone of the eastern section of the Jiangnan mineralization belt.It is one of the major breakthroughs in the exploration of altered granite type lithium deposits in the Yifeng area of the southern edge of Jiuling in recent years.The delineation of the ore body with ω(Li2O)>0.2%has yielded a super large amount of lithium oxide resources.Through detailed field geological investigation and mining area exploration,the spatial distribution,stages,and intrusion relationship of the Yanshanian granite in the mining area have been deter-mined,and the association of muscovite granite with lithium deposits has been clarified.Based on the geological characteristics,ore characteristics,and lithium element occurrence status of the Maoling lithium deposit,it is be-lieved that the Maoling altered granite type lithium deposit on the southern edge of Jiuling is of alkali metasomatic origin,providing a reference for the exploration and research of lithium deposits in the surrounding area.
