Analysis of spatiotemporal distribution law and metallogenic resources potential of natural quartz sand deposits in China
The distribution of natural quartz sand deposits in China is mainly controlled by Cenozoic basins,coastal ba-sins,intermountain basins and fault basins.The distribution of mineralization time is limited,and the formation time is mainly concentrated in the Neogene Miocene to Quaternary Holocene,with Holocene as the dominant period,which is the main metallogenic era of natural quartz sand deposits in China,with good ore quality.China is rich in natural quartz sand resources,with wide geographical distribution and high concentration.The deposits are mainly distributed in the coastal ar-eas of Guangdong,Hainan,Guangxi,Fujian and Shandong.
