新疆伊犁盆地砂岩型铀矿床,由于规模大、成矿环境和成矿条件好,在同类型矿床中具有良好的代表性,研究矿床的成矿作用对今后找矿勘查以及开采具有重要理论意义。本文在区域赋铀层位沉积环境研究基础上,以赋矿围岩为研究主体,对伊犁盆地典型铀矿床沉积序列和矿床的控矿层位开展研究,通过对赋矿沉积层位中粘土质对铀矿成矿的控制作用及与铀矿的空间联系和成因分析,开展系统的铀矿床学、能谱测试、显微结构、扫描电镜、地球化学、氢氧同位素等研究,特别是开展了富矿砂体中粘土矿物的种类、成分、结构、同位素、成因等的研究,对粘土质矿物对铀矿成矿的控制作用进行了系统研究。通过研究粘土矿物在伊犁盆地蒙其古尔砂岩型铀矿床成矿过程中的作用及与铀矿的空间联系和成因分析表明:粘土矿物在层间氧化带中分布较为广泛,在主要矿体的氧化还原过渡带中,尤其是部分具有强烈粘土蚀变的砂岩层中铀含量较其他层位要高,反映出粘土矿物与铀成矿是有成因关联的。通过系统的扫描电镜、能谱测试研究,从微观证明粘土矿物与铀成矿有相关关系;粘土矿物的存在导致在近地表含氧含铀水在经过砂岩孔隙时被具有较强吸附能力和巨大表面自由能的粘土矿物所吸附,形成了铀含量较高的片状,团块状的粘土矿物,其在铀成矿作用中起到了吸附和界面的作用,有利于赋矿空间的形成及定位。结合沉积作用、构造活动和后期流体成矿作用等因素,分析了成矿机制和成矿作用,赋矿层位中的粘土矿物、其它成矿条件如岩性(赋矿层和矿源层)、构造(对铀矿化的动力和对地下水径流及铀矿体)等共同控制了铀成矿作用。  相似文献

东胜砂岩型铀矿床是近几年在中国鄂尔多斯盆地东北部发现的一大型铀矿床。因其独特的特征而不同于其他普通砂岩型矿床,矿体一般受绿色砂岩和灰色砂岩之间的过渡带控制,而这两种砂岩目前都指示着还原地球化学环境。古氧化绿色砂岩主要由与油-气二次还原作用有关的绿泥石化和绿帘石化造成。从成因上讲,该矿床与普通砂岩型铀矿床不同,它有着更为复杂的成因,不仅经历了古氧化的成矿过程,而且还经历了油-气流体和热液流体的再改造。空间上,它与侏罗纪直罗组辫状古河道体系有关。较高品位的铀矿化带一般赋存在辫状河主河道与分支河道的分叉部位,所形成砂岩的不均匀性表明,其沉积相属于辫状河到辫状三角洲的过渡沉积体系。统计结果表明,中、细粒砂岩是铀矿化最有利的岩石类型。  相似文献

内蒙古皂火壕铀矿床是古层间氧化带砂岩型铀矿床,具有明显的有机地球化学分带性。笔者认为,其过渡带有机质含量高是原地同沉积富集和异地来源有机质"叠加"的结果,二者分别受控于岩相古地理条件和古层间氧化作用中的铀-有机质作用。过渡带中的有机质主要包括腐殖质、有机黏土复合体以及干酪根。铀对有机质具有热演化催化作用,可能导致了过渡带中的有机质成熟度增高。皂火壕铀矿床是成岩作用发展到一定阶段的产物,侏罗系煤系地层在成岩演化中产生了丰富的可溶性有机质和烃类物质,它们参与了铀成矿的全过程。有机地球化学分带性指标可以作为层间氧化带过渡带乃至前锋线定位识别的微观及宏观标志,对铀矿找矿勘探具有重要的指导作用。  相似文献

鄂尔多斯盆地南部中侏罗统直罗组下段砂岩中已发现店头砂岩型铀矿床及多个铀矿点,但对于盆地南部直罗组沉积相研究较为薄弱,制约了砂岩型铀矿的进一步找矿工作。通过剖面实测、岩心编录,结合石油、煤炭、核工业地质钻孔资料,对鄂尔多斯盆地南部直罗—店头地区直罗组沉积特征进行精细刻画。在此基础上,探讨了沉积相与铀成矿的关系及下一步找矿方向。结果显示,直罗组下段砂体厚度30~65 m、砂地比在0.6~0.75之间,为砂质辫状河沉积。直罗组上段早期砂体厚度10~38 m、砂地比值在0.15~0.45之间,为曲流河沉积;直罗组上段沉积晚期研究区位于湖盆中心所在位置,为滨浅湖沉积。沉积环境、沉积相、辫状河河道交汇部位、砂体厚度、沉积物粒度及泥岩夹层对铀成矿具有重要控制作用。直罗组下段辫状河河道交汇或分叉部位应作为勘查重点,心滩亚相的含炭屑、黄铁矿砂质碎屑岩可作为铀矿化的找矿标志。  相似文献

二连盆地包括马尼特坳陷早白垩世具有幕式裂陷特点。裂陷幕不同阶段控制铀储层的垂向分布并且控制砂岩型铀矿的垂向分布。在马尼特坳陷西部,有利的储矿层位、有利的铀储层的成因类型和砂岩型铀矿的形成过程都与盆地的幕式演化密切相关。赛汉组为断拗转换期,为最有利的铀储层发育层位;裂陷幕的末期通常伴随弱构造反转,多幕弱构造反转形成的构造斜坡控制古水文地质系统并控矿;不同裂陷幕阶段之间的不整合面和剥蚀作用是氧化带和砂岩型铀矿发育的有利时期;幕式裂陷决定了石油-天然气、煤和砂岩型铀矿的时空配置。根据二连盆地幕式裂陷不同阶段的构造、沉积特征可以明确重点勘探层位、找矿类型和有利找矿部位。  相似文献

Diantou uranium deposits and multiple uranium mineralization sites have been discovered in the sandstones in the lower member of the Jurassic Zhiluo Formation in the southern Ordos Basin. However, the study on the sedimentary facies of the Zhiluo Formation, which restricts the prospecting work of sandstone-type uranium deposits. Based on the outcrop measurements and drilling core cataloging, and combined with the geological drilling data of petroleum, coal, and nuclear industry, we have elaborated the sedimentary characteristics of the Zhiluo Formation in the Fuxian area. We have also combined uranium source, structure, post-alteration and other factors to explore the relationship between sedimentary faces and uranium metallogenic conditions in the study area. The study found that in the lower member of the Jurassic Zhiluo Formation, the thickness of the sand body is 30-65 m and sand ratio is 0.6-0.75. It is gravel and sandy braided river deposit. In the upper member of the Jurassic Zhiluo Formation, the thickness of the sand body is 10-38 m, and the sand ratio is 0.15-0.45 and is a meandering river deposit. The study area is located at the center of the lake basin and sedimentary facies is coastal shallow lacustrine in the upper member of the Jurassic Zhiluo Formation. Sedimentary environment, sedimentary facies, the intersection of braided river channels, sand body thickness, sediment particle size and mudstone interlayer play an important role in controlling uranium mineralization. The exploration of uranium deposits in the northern part of the deposit should focus on the intersection or bifurcation of the braided river channel in the lower part of the Zhiluo Formation. The charcoal- and pyrite-bearing sandstone of channel bar can be used as a prospecting indicator for uranium mineralization.  相似文献

内蒙古东胜地区中侏罗统砂岩沉积物源的地球化学证据   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
基于显微薄片观察、稀土和微量元素分析探讨了鄂尔多斯盆地北部东胜地区中侏罗统直罗组砂岩的物源和铀矿化的地球化学特征。砂岩样品含有多种的变质岩岩屑应来自盆地北部的变质岩,那里的花岗片麻岩和斜长角闪岩分析显示:花岗片麻岩LREE/HREE为19.02,斜长角闪岩LREE/HREE为4.47。这两类母岩LREE/HREE比值分别接近于砂岩最高和最低LREE/HREE比值,其稀土配分曲线模式与砂岩LREE/HREE比值端元岩样可以对比,说明砂岩的母岩主要来自这两类变质岩。花岗片麻岩Th/U高,表明发生铀丢失,可作为本区铀成矿的重要铀源。有意义的是,铀含量高的样品,其LREE/HREE比值高,铀含量与亲硫的微量元素Pb、Zn和Mo具有相关关系,这些特征可作为铀矿化的重要标志。  相似文献

Meso-Cenozoic intracontinental orogenic processes in the Tian Shan orogenic belt have significant effect on the sandstone-hosted uranium deposits in the intramontane basins and those adjacent to the orogen. The Sawafuqi uranium deposit, which is located in the South Tian Shan orogenic belt, is investigated to reveal the relationships between uranium mineralization and orogenies. Recent exploration results show that the Sawafuqi uranium deposit has tabular, stratiform, quasi-stratiform, and lens-like orebodies and various geological characteristics different from typical interlayer oxidation zone sandstone-hosted uranium deposits. Systematic studies of ore samples from the Sawafuqi uranium deposit using a variety of techniques, including thin section observation, α-track radiograph, electron microprobe and scanning electron microscope, suggest that uranium mineralization is closely related to pyrite and organic matter. Mineralization-related alterations in the host rocks are mainly silicification and argillation including kaolinite, illite(and illite-smectite mixed layer) and chlorite. Tree stages of mineralization were identified in the Sawafuqi uranium deposit:(i) uranium-bearing detritus and synsedimentary initial pre-enrichment;(ii) interlayer oxidization zone uranium mineralization; and(iii) vein-type uranium mineralization. The synsedimentary uranium pre-enrichment represents an early uranium enrichment in the Sawafuqi uranium deposit, and interlayer oxidation zone uranium mineralization formed the main orebodies, which are superimposed by the vein-type uranium mineralization. Combining the results of this study with previous studies on the Meso-Cenozoic orogenies of South Tian Shan, it is proposed that the synsedimentary uranium pre-enrichment of the Sawafuqi uranium deposit was caused by Triassic Tian Shan uplift, and the interlayer oxidation zone uranium mineralization occurred during the Eocence-Oligocene period, when tectonism was relatively quiet, whereas the vein-type uranium mineralization took place in relation to the strong orogeny of South Tian Shan since Miocene.  相似文献

库车坳陷周缘的铀矿化非常活跃,蕴藏于上新统库车组下段的砂岩型铀矿的控矿要素、成矿机理、成矿规律,特别是远景选区是近年来铀矿地质学家关注的重点.笔者充分依据区域地质资料、野外地质调查和勘查钻孔资料,通过综合分析,试图在构造?沉积?地形地貌的盆山耦合机制中,遵循砂岩型铀矿的普遍成矿机理、按照由源到汇的研究思路,剖析砂岩型铀矿形成发育的关键控矿要素、时空配置关系,从铀成矿系统分析的角度揭示库车组关键控矿要素的协同控矿机理,以期为铀矿勘查提供战略服务.主要认识有:新生代南天山造山带的大规模陆内逆冲推覆作用既控制了库车组含铀岩系的充填演化过程,也制约了库车组下段铀成矿的基本格局和成矿作用过程,盆山耦合机制是驱动砂岩型铀矿形成发育的原始驱动力.南天山造山带岩浆岩分布规模虽然有限,但在托木尔峰一带存在富铀花岗岩.充分发育的地表水流域系统,一方面能够携带造山带的碎屑物堆积于库车坳陷,从而分阶段形成系列的大型物源?沉积朵体,造就了潜在的含铀岩系和优质的铀储层.另一方面,穿越造山带富铀花岗岩的流域系统,不仅通过物理搬运为铀储层提供了原始微量铀的积累,而且通过衍生的地下含矿流体系统促进了区域层间氧化带的发育以及成矿所需的溶解铀质.在库车坳陷,近东西向展布的构造行迹限定了含矿流场和层间氧化带的发育空间(拜城凹陷),铀矿化集中发育于区域层间氧化带前锋线附近(特别是南部“阻水面”一侧).在拜城凹陷南部边缘,随着具有同沉积生长性质的秋里塔格构造带的不断隆升,区域的含矿流场和层间氧化带被迫向北迁移并发生“左旋”,从而造就了包括日达里克铀矿床在内的“新”“老”两个铀成矿系统.   相似文献

本文利用煤田钻孔资料,结合区域地质特征,首次对研究区铀储层砂体展布及规模,以及铀储层沉积相带进行精细刻画。在此基础上,结合铀源、构造、煤田钻孔放射性测井和地面伽马能谱测量等因素,对研究区铀成矿前景进行预测。研究发现,赛汉组铀储层砂体发育,总体呈南东—北西向展布。赛汉组下段砂体累积厚度120~200m,发育辫状河三角洲相,其中辫状河三角洲平原分布广泛,由5个正粒序沉积旋回构成;赛汉组上段砂体累积厚度50~90m,发育辫状河相,由2个正粒序沉积旋回构成。研究区具有丰富的铀源、有利的构造背景及沉积相带,砂岩型铀成矿有利区平面上位于辫状(分流)河道砂体边缘靠近泛滥平原或分流间湾的部位,垂向上位于(5)号和(7)号沉积旋回。  相似文献

利用10多口钻孔岩心、电测曲线和分析化验资料,对钱家店凹陷含铀岩系姚家组沉积环境及古气候进行了分析.姚家组为一套以中细粒为主的砂质辫状河沉积产物.含矿层主岩为岩屑长石砂岩和长石岩屑砂岩,粒度概率累积曲线以悬浮总体含量较高为特征的两段式.一个完整的垂向序列由含砾砂岩或中细砂岩向上变细为粉砂岩和少量泥岩组成的正韵律.碎屑组分含量变化和重矿物分析表明,沉积物源主要来自盆地西北部古隆起的酸性岩浆岩和变质岩.泥岩元素分析、孢粉分析及泥岩颜色等指示,姚家组沉积期古气候主要为亚热带干旱气候,在这一大的气候背景下有过程度较弱的短暂潮湿化事件发生.干旱-半干旱气候为层间氧化带的形成提供了有利的气候条件,周边古隆起或更远山地的酸性火山岩、古老结晶岩和变质岩为该区提供了丰富的铀源,广泛发育、物性较好的辫状河道砂体为铀矿化提供了良好的储渗空间.  相似文献

Some 3400 drill core samples of the Athabasca Group and underlying regolith have been obtained by sampling 8-m sections from 55 diamond drill holes in the McClean Lake Area, Saskatchewan. Forty eight holes are from sections over six areas known to contain uranium mineralization and 7 are from unmineralized areas. The uranium zones are covered by 30 to 180 m of Athabasca sandstones and conglomerates.The uranium mineralization of the McClean deposits can be described as belonging to two different facies; a more reduced sulphide-arsenide facies and a more oxidized hematite-“bleached” facies, superimposed on any one of three host rocks.The sulphide-arsenide facies is probably older and, except in one deposit, it forms a patchy distribution of relicts. The principal pattern is an upwards increase in sulphur/arsenic ratio. The hematite-“bleached” facies appears to be younger and may represent a reworking of the earlier sulphide-arsenide facies mineralization under more oxidizing conditions.The trace metals can be grouped according to their redox behaviour. Vanadium, Mo and U, occurring as oxides, form one group while Ni, Co, Zn, Cu and As, occurring as sulphides and/or arsenides, form intermediate and most reduced groups, respectively. Iron is concentrated in the most oxidized facies as hematite or goethite and in the most reduced facies as pyritebravoite, siderite and chlorite. Manganese follows the distribution of siderite.The ratio of oxidized to reduced minerals can be represented by the ratio of U/Ni. This ratio can be used to estimate the variation of redox potential in the deposit at the time of deposition or alteration. The principal pattern is one of systematic increase in U/Ni ratio or oxidation potential both upward and to the northeast in each of the hematite and bleached facies.A generalized Eh-pH diagram is used to qualitatively describe the significance of each mineral facies.The U/Ni ratio of the transition between the hematite and “bleached” facies increases upwards. The phase diagram suggests that a possible cause is an upward decrease in pH and increase in Eh.The overall distribution is compatible with the origin of the deposits due to reduction at the interface between a plume of reductant emanating from fractures in the sub-Athabasca basement and an oxidizing aquifer moving southwestward in the sandstone. This model does not accurately predict the distribution of elements among the seven McClean Lake pods. However, it explains the overall pattern. Local variations in metal ratios in solution either in time or reflecting local provenance could be adduced to explain local deviations from the overall pattern.Clay alteration, apparently largely contemporaneous with the earliest mineralization, is largely illitic but with sporadic occurrences of xenotime and goyazite. Thus K and to some extent P, Y and light REE's are also enriched to some degree in the deposits.Uranium analysis of the drill core shows that there is little movement of U into the overlying sandstones from basement rocks and regolith that contain no uranium deposits. Uranium in the Athabasca sandstone from these areas averages less than 1 ppm. However, where uranium zones have been found in the basement rocks, regolith and lower Athabasca sandstone, U values greater than 2–3 ppm consistently occur in the overlying sandstones at or near surface.There appear to be two types of U anomalies, those that flank the deposits and those that directly overlie them. Both types exhibit vertical and lateral continuity. They are associated with vertical to steeply dipping fracture systems that traverse the Athabasca sandstone from basement to surface. The fractures are thought to be related to diagenetic processes from compaction of the sedimentary rocks over basement irregularities as well as tectonic processes (i.e. re-adjustment along old basement structures).These results suggest that target areas containing deeply buried uranium deposits could be defined by U analyses of the Athabasca sandstone from quite widely spaced holes of limited depth. This conclusion can be compared to XRD and chemical studies of clay mineral distribution within the Athabasca sandstone about the deposits.  相似文献

鄂尔多斯盆地东胜砂岩型铀矿的微量和稀土元素能为铀矿勘查提供地球化学标志。以东胜铀矿层位侏罗系及其中铀矿化为对象,针对砂岩型铀矿石、铀矿化砂岩和围岩几类地质体进行元素地球化学对比研究。东胜砂岩型铀矿微量元素地球化学特征表明,Pb、Mo与U关系极为密切,它们在铀矿石中最富集,铀矿化砂岩中次富集,砂质和泥质围岩中不富集;Pb和Mo可以作为东胜铀矿床矿化的指示元素,Pb、U和Mo蛛网图上构成的"W"式样可作为东胜地区砂岩铀矿化的指示模型。铀矿石、铀矿化砂岩、砂岩以及泥岩表现出相似的REE地球化学特征和配分模式,推断其具有统一的物源、沉积环境和构造背景。部分铀矿石明显富集HREE,显然在沉积成岩后期经历了(热液)改造作用。东胜铀矿化经历了沉积成岩和热液改造作用两个成矿阶段。  相似文献

吐哈盆地铀矿找矿工作因十红滩矿床的发现而取得了重要突破,之后又在八仙口、苏巴什等地区相继找到了铀矿体与铀矿化.尽管矿床的发现带来了与铀矿化有关的研究工作不断深入,然而,矿床层间渗入氧化成矿作用的关键控制因素——沉积相与微相并未引起人们的足够重视.通过分析盆地的构造演化、钻孔岩心观察和测井曲线分析,识别出含矿目的层西山窑组(包括一段、二段、三段)主要形成于辫状三角洲环境.西山窑组一段、三段沉积于辫状三角洲平原环境,而最为重要的含矿层——西山窑组二段则沉积于辫状三角洲前缘相的水下分流河道、河口坝、分流间湾等微相.镜下鉴定结果表明,目的层岩石类型主要为岩屑砂岩,长石岩屑砂岩,次要为岩屑长石砂岩.电子探针分析结果显示,铀的存在形式主要是独立铀矿物,即沥青铀矿和含钛铀矿物.连井剖面对比研究表明,含铀含氧流体自南东向北西方向迁移,形成的铀矿体主要为板状和卷状.沉积相、微相与铀矿化之间的关系研究表明,铀矿化发育在辨状三角洲水下分流河道微相与河口坝微相环境,或水下分流河道微相与分流间湾微相接触界面附近的岩石中,沉积相(或微相)界面是控制铀矿化的关键因素.   相似文献

滇西腾冲地块构造-盆地演化与砂岩型铀矿成矿条件   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
以"煤铀兼探"新思路带动的中国西南地区新一轮砂岩型铀矿勘查,首选滇西腾冲地块新近纪盆地群为突破口。从容矿主岩沉积建造、铀源地质体配置、成矿作用驱动3个方面,总结了腾冲地块构造-盆地演化对铀成矿的影响。在大陆汇聚构造体制下,地块内发育一系列受断裂制约的狭长状断陷盆地和冲积扇、扇三角洲、辫状河、湖泊的复合沉积体系,扇中辫状河道、三角洲前缘席状砂、水下分流河道等是赋铀砂体发育的有利沉积微相。中特提斯洋俯冲碰撞形成的燕山期中酸性花岗岩和经历多期构造变质的高黎贡山群花岗片麻岩、混合花岗岩为区内铀成矿提供了充足的物质来源。而赋矿层同沉积期的新近纪构造运动,以及第四纪以来的地壳差异升降,驱动了产铀盆地内部的潜水氧化和后期叠加的层间氧化成矿过程。基于上述认识,提出当前区内的铀矿勘查应加强沉积微相和岩相古地理研究,建立赋矿有利相带的空间分布模式;同时加强不同蚀源区地质体的铀源能力分析和成矿作用类型的甄别,更准确地锁定潜在铀矿体的定位规律。  相似文献

层间氧化带精细结构的量化表征对揭示砂岩型铀成矿规律至关重要.利用系列沉积学和地球化学编图对松辽盆地钱家店铀矿床层间氧化带结构进行了量化表征,发现该矿床层间氧化带主要由红色砂岩、浅黄色砂岩、灰白色砂岩、灰色含矿砂岩和原生灰色砂岩构成,分别对应于强氧化亚带、弱氧化亚带、微弱氧化亚带、过渡带和还原带.铀矿化与层间氧化带内部结构关系密切:工业铀矿体主要发育在过渡带,微弱氧化亚带矿体连续性相对较差,弱氧化亚带发育零星铀矿化,还原带靠近过渡带一侧发育低品位的零星铀矿化.铀储层内部结构和沉积相对层间氧化带发育具有重要制约作用:辫状河砂体及辫状分流河道砂体是氧化带发育区域;辫状分流河道边部及分流间湾中决口扇砂体是过渡带发育区域.   相似文献

纳岭沟铀矿床位于鄂尔多斯盆地北部,是我国目前已发现的可地浸砂岩型铀矿床之一。其受古层间氧化带控制,呈板状产于中侏罗统直罗组下段辫状河砂体中。笔者从元素地球化学分析入手,通过对不同蚀变砂岩的地球化学特征进行对比,认为蚀变砂岩主要化学成分的变化受成岩作用、水-岩作用,以及油气二次还原作用等影响,并且有机碳含量在矿化砂岩中较高,说明铀矿化与有机质关系密切。矿化砂岩中的微量元素相对富集或亏损明显,可能与成岩后期(热液)的改造作用有关。蚀变砂岩均表现出壳型花岗岩的微量和稀土元素特征,LREE相对富集,说明盆地北部的阴山、大青山古陆壳富铀花岗岩体是直罗组的主要物源。此外,δEu和δCe特征也表明纳岭沟铀矿床是在弱氧化-弱还原过渡性环境下形成。这些特征可作为找矿勘探的重要指示或标志。  相似文献

The Bayinqinggeli deposit in the northern Ordos Basin, northwestern of China, is a recently discovered sandstone-type uranium deposit. The uranium (U) orebodies are generally hosted in the lower member of the Jurassic Zhiluo Formation (Fm.), and are primarily tabular or irregular in shape. In the study area, 23 sandstone samples were collected from the Zhiluo Fm. and analyzed for major, trace, and rare earth elements (REEs). The geochemical characteristics of these sandstones are used to evaluate the factors controlling U mineralization. The source rocks of the Zhiluo Fm. sandstones are mainly volcanic and felsic magmatic rocks formed in continental arc and active continental-marginal arc environments, and they provided the material required for the mineralization. The index of compositional variability ranges from 1.02 to 3.29 (average1.38), indicating that the Zhiluo Fm. sandstones are immature and composed of first-cycle sediments. The corrected chemical index of alteration averages 56, suggesting that the source rocks underwent weak chemical weathering. The ore host rocks are loose, providing favorable conditions for epigenetic oxidation and U precipitation and enrichment. Ferrous iron in minerals such as chlorite, biotite, ilmenite, and pyrite might have played a role either in adsorbing or reducing the uranium.  相似文献

鄂尔多斯盆地北部直罗组原生灰色砂岩具有高铀背景值的特征,在层间氧化阶段砂岩同沉积期富集的铀元素遭受氧化迁出构成该区铀成矿的重要铀源。本文对鄂尔多斯盆地北部铀矿区直罗组砂岩进行了碎屑锆石U-Pb定年、重矿物和古水流分析,深入分析了该区直罗组的沉积物源,并探讨了富铀砂岩的成因。结果显示:矿区直罗组砂岩碎屑锆石U-Pb年龄主要集中在251~308Ma,322~354Ma,1529~2182Ma,2200~2632Ma四个年龄区间;富Mn钛铁矿、锆石、磷灰石和榍石的重矿物组合指示物源主要为中酸性岩浆岩;通过与源区对比分析认为铀矿区直罗组物源主要来自盆地之北的乌拉山—大青山地区和狼山东部地区的新太古代、古元古代和晚古生代中酸性岩浆岩及新太古代、古元古代变质岩。结合源区岩体铀含量特征分析,发现晚古生代中酸性岩浆岩相对于源区其它岩体强烈富集铀元素,是研究区直罗组高铀背景值砂岩形成发育的主要原因。晚古生代中酸性岩浆岩的形成与古亚洲洋的演化密切相关,其分布特征可以作为中东亚成矿域内盆地铀资源远景预测的重要依据。  相似文献
