Provenance and Tectonic Setting of the Lower Cretaceous Huanhe Formation in the Northwestern Ordos Basin and Its Implications for Uranium Mineralization

Da Sun,
Huaming Li,
Fei Xia
et al.

Abstract: The Ordos Basin is an important sandstone-type uranium enrichment region in China, and the Lower Cretaceous Huanhe Formation has attracted significant attention as a newly discovered ore-bearing stratum. To elucidate the provenance, tectonic background, and sedimentary environment constraints on uranium enrichment in the Huanhe Formation sandstone-type uranium deposits, 10 representative sandstone samples from the study area were analyzed by using electron microscopy, X-ray fluorescence (XRF), inductively coup… Show more

“…Based on the major elements, trace elements, and REEs, four major tectonic setti are distinguished for sandstones [47,48]: oceanic island arc (OIA), continental island a (CIA), active continental margin (ACM), and passive continental margin (PCM). Accor ing to the SiO2/Al2O3-K2O/Na2O diagram (Figure 9a), Al2O3/(Na2O+CaO)-(Fe2O3 T + Mg diagram (Figure 9b), K2O/Na2O-(Fe2O3 T + MgO) diagram (Figure 9c), and SiO2/Al2O K2O/(Na2O + CaO) diagram (Figure 9d), the samples fall mainly within the PCM regio or on the border between the PCM and ACM regions.…”
