Analysis of Geological Characteristics and Control Factors of Shangheng Uranium Deposit in Ningdu County
The Shangheng Uranium Deposit is located in Ningdu County,Jiangxi Province,and is one of the few areas in Jiangxi Province that has made breakthroughs in nuclear geological work in recent years.In the Taoshan Uranium Field where this deposit is located,most of the deposits are of the fractured and altered rock type that occurs within the complex rock mass,however,the upper horizontal uranium deposits are located in the regional fractures of the external contact zone of the rock mass,and are of the granite external zone type,and there is a slight lack of understanding of the ore-forming laws and controlling factors.This paper uses specialized geological surveys,trenching,and drilling techniques to preliminarily identify uranium mineralization conditions and controlling factors,providing new ideas for future exploration of this type of uranium.Research suggests that factors such as the Taoshan complex rock mass,Nanhua strata,red basins,upper transverse faults,brittle tectonic rocks,and ductile tectonic rocks play different roles in the process of mineralization,ore hosting,and ore preservation.
