华南碳硅泥岩型铀矿床与断陷带倾伏地段的关系

文章以产于不同地质背景及不同层位的五个碳硅泥岩型铀矿床为例,说明该类型铀矿床常分布于断陷带的倾伏地段。初步探讨了该类型铀矿床产于断陷带倾伏地段的原因:富铀地层是成矿的物质基础和前提,经干旱气候条件下地下水的淋积造矿作用成为工业富集,成矿期都在气候干旱的中、新生代;断陷带的倾伏地段比扬起段汇水条件好,易形成铀矿床;在新构造运动上升区,保矿条件是控矿诸因素中最关键的条件,倾伏地段最有利于保矿。文章指出了识别断陷带倾伏地段的标志,对该类型锚矿床找矿勘探有实际意义。

THE RELATIONSHIP OF CARBONATE-SILICEOUSPELITIC URANIUM DEPOSITS WITH THE PLUNGING PORTIONS OF DOWNFAULTED ZONES

Five uranium deposits of carbonate. siliceous-pelitic type occurred in different geological setting are studied. The geological data suggest that this type of uranium deposits is mostly located in the plunging portions of down- faulted zones. The cause of this kind of occurrence is tentatively discussed. It is proposed that uraniferous strata are the uranium source in deposits. The infiltration under arid climatic conditions promoted the uranium concentration up to ore grade. The mesozoic-cenozoic era which is characterized by the arid climate was the main ore-forming period, The converging condition of ground water in the plunging portions of down-faulted zones was better. Therefore, the plunging portions of down-faulted zones were more favourable for uranium ore formation compared with that of the uplifting portions. The preservation is the most important ore-controlling factor under the neotectonic movement and the plunging portions are the most favourable in this sense. The recognition criteria for the plunging portions of down-faulted zones which can be used in uranium exploration are proposed.
