The Relationship between Jurassic Coal Measures and Sandstone‐type Uranium Deposits in the Northeastern Ordos Basin, China

Abstract: Outcrop and drill hole data show that the Jurassic coal measures in the northeastern Ordos Basin are composed mainly of the Yan'an Formation and the lowstand system tract of the Zhiluo Formation, and there is a regional unconformity between them. The Dongsheng uranium deposit is associated with the Jurassic coal measures. Research data indicate that the Jurassic coal measures in the study area have a certain hydrocarbon‐generating capacity, although the metamorphic grade is low (Ro=0.40%–0.58%). In the Dongshe… Show more

“…Sandstone-hosted uranium deposits in the Ordos Basin are mainly distributed in the northern margin of the basin, including the Dongsheng, Nalinggou, and Daying deposits. The U mineralization of these deposits is located in the contact zone between primary reduced grey sandstones and secondary reduced green sandstones within the Zhiluo Formation [31]. Similar to the Qianjiadian deposit, altered green sandstones are spatially closely related to the U mineralization [99].…”

“…The primary reduced host sandstones are mainly composed of lithic fragments and individual detrital minerals such as quartz, K-feldspar, plagioclase, biotite, muscovite, and chlorite. In the Qianjiadian area, the U mineralization occurs at the redox interface between the primary reduced and the secondary oxidized sandstones (Figure 2b) or close to a secondary reduced green-white zone [18,27,31] related to mafic rock intrusions that are spatially distributed along the redox boundary (Figures 1c and 2b). Besides, the content of U from Yaojia Formation sandstones is inversely correlated with REEs' content [17].…”

“…All of the coal samples were collected from the Linxing -Shenfu area, which is located in the north eastern Ordos Basin, and tectonic location of the Linxing-Shenfu area is on the Jinxi flexural fold belt of the eastern Ordos Basin (Fig. 1a, b) (Jiao et al, 2016;Tao et al, 2017;Gao et al, 2018;Li et al, 2019).
