Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of uranium resource exploration, and in particular to a method, apparatus, equipment, medium, and product for determining the extent of sodium-modified hydrothermal uranium mineralization. Background Technology
[0002] Sodium-altered hydrothermal uranium deposits are a common type of uranium deposit. They refer to a class of hydrothermal uranium deposits associated with sodium-altered hydrothermal alteration, characterized by lower ore grades but larger scale and relatively lower development costs. Extensive sodium alteration is the most important characteristic of these deposits. The ore-bearing host rocks are typically granite, mylonitized gneiss, or metamorphic clastic rocks, with widespread albite enrichment and quartz dissolution. Uranium mineralization is usually closely related to sodium alteration, often occurring later in time and spatially within the sodium-altered rocks, but its extent is smaller. Therefore, accurately and efficiently determining the extent of sodium-altered hydrothermal uranium mineralization is of great significance for the exploration of sodium-altered hydrothermal uranium deposits.

[0042] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0043] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this application more apparent and understandable, the application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0044] Currently, there are many methods for uranium exploration, including remote sensing, petrogeochemical methods, geophysical methods, and geochemical methods. In the exploration of sodium-alkaline hydrothermal uranium deposits, petrogeochemical methods are an important tool for identifying uranium mineralization. However, traditional petrogeochemical studies typically use a single uranium element anomaly to delineate uranium anomaly zones, paying insufficient attention to other elements and neglecting the occurrence patterns of elemental combinations. This method of delineating uranium anomaly zones using a single element is difficult to accurately locate ore bodies spatially, resulting in a low success rate and requiring extensive field sampling, which is inefficient. Especially when boreholes do not reveal uranium mineralization, traditional petrogeochemical methods can obtain very little uranium mineralization information. Furthermore, as uranium exploration progresses, most surface and shallow uranium mineralization has been discovered, highlighting the importance of deep exploration. Therefore, this application provides a method for determining the extent of sodium-alkaline hydrothermal uranium mineralization, such as... Figure 1As shown, the process includes steps 201 to 206. Wherein:
[0045] Step 201: Grid the uranium exploration area and obtain the contents of each major element, each high field strength element and each rare earth element in the rock samples in each grid.
[0046] Step 202: For any grid, calculate the migration mass fraction of each major element in the rock sample within the grid based on the content of each major element in the rock sample within the grid.
[0047] Step 203: Calculate the sum of all high field strength elements in the rock sample within the grid to obtain the sum of high field strength elements corresponding to the rock sample within the grid.
[0048] Step 204: Based on the content of each rare earth element in the rock sample within the grid, calculate the ratio of the total amount of light rare earth elements to the total amount of heavy rare earth elements in the rock sample within the grid, and obtain the light and heavy rare earth ratio corresponding to the rock sample within the grid.
[0049] Step 205: Based on the coordinates of the rock samples in each grid, the migration mass fraction of each principal element corresponding to the rock samples in each grid, the high field strength element corresponding to the rock samples in each grid, and the light and heavy rare earth ratio corresponding to the rock samples in each grid, draw a heat map to obtain the element mass spatial migration map.
[0050] Step 206: Determine the extent of sodium metasomatic hydrothermal uranium mineralization within the uranium exploration area based on the abnormal regions corresponding to the migration mass fractions of each major element in the elemental mass space migration map, the abnormal regions corresponding to high field strength elements and their corresponding high field strength elements, and the abnormal regions corresponding to the ratio of light to heavy rare earth elements.
[0051] In another exemplary embodiment of this application, the process of determining the uranium exploration area is as follows: the location of the ore body is mainly controlled by three factors: fault structure, rock mass and hydrothermal alteration. Favorable lithology is continental crust remelting granite, which is often rich in silica and alkali and aluminum supersaturated in composition; favorable structure is the fault structure during the mineralization period; favorable hydrothermal alteration mineral assemblage is chlorite, hematite, albite, fluorite, calcite, etc. Therefore, the uranium exploration area corresponding to the target area is determined according to the spatial distribution characteristics of the favorable lithology, favorable structure and favorable hydrothermal alteration mineral assemblage of the target area.
[0052] In another exemplary embodiment of this application, the uranium exploration area is gridded. Specifically, the grid spacing is set according to the extent of the uranium exploration area, and generally, it should meet the requirement that there are at least 100 samples within the uranium exploration area. The denser the grid spacing, the higher the accuracy of the final obtained range of sodium-alternated hydrothermal uranium mineralization.
[0053] In another exemplary embodiment of this application, the migration mass fraction of each major element in the rock sample within the grid is calculated based on the content of each major element in the rock sample within the grid, specifically including:
[0054] Using aluminum as the inactive component, the migration mass fraction of each major element in the rock sample within the grid is calculated based on the content of each major element in the rock sample within the grid.
[0055] In another exemplary embodiment of this application, the rock samples within the grid include fresh rock samples and altered rock samples; using aluminum as the inactive component, the migration mass fraction of each major element corresponding to the rock samples within the grid is calculated based on the content of each major element in the rock samples within the grid, specifically including:
[0056] Based on the aluminum content in the fresh rock samples within the grid and the aluminum content in the altered rock samples within the grid, calculate the normalization factor value corresponding to the rock samples within the grid;
[0057] Based on the normalized factor values of the rock samples within the grid, the content of each major element in the fresh rock samples within the grid, and the content of each major element in the altered rock samples within the grid, the migration mass fraction of each major element corresponding to the rock samples within the grid is calculated.
[0058] In another exemplary embodiment of this application, based on the aluminum content in the fresh rock sample within the grid and the aluminum content in the altered rock sample within the grid, the normalization factor value corresponding to the rock sample within the grid is calculated, specifically as follows:
[0059] The normalization factor corresponding to the rock sample in the grid is obtained by calculating the ratio of the aluminum content in the fresh rock sample in the grid to the aluminum content in the altered rock sample in the grid.
[0060] In another exemplary embodiment of this application, based on the normalized factor value corresponding to the rock sample within the grid, the content of each major element in the fresh rock sample within the grid, and the content of each major element in the altered rock sample within the grid, the migration mass fraction of each major element corresponding to the rock sample within the grid is calculated, specifically as follows:
[0061] According to the formula Calculate the migration mass fraction ΔC of the i-th principal element corresponding to the rock sample within the grid. i , where C i A C represents the content of the i-th major element in the altered rock sample within the grid.i O K represents the content of the i-th major element in the fresh rock sample within the grid, and K represents the normalization factor value.
[0062] In another exemplary embodiment of this application, a heat map is plotted based on the coordinates of the rock samples in each grid, the migration mass fraction of each principal element corresponding to the rock samples in each grid, the high field strength element corresponding to the rock samples in each grid, and the light-heavy rare earth ratio corresponding to the rock samples in each grid, to obtain an element mass spatial migration map, specifically including:
[0063] Based on the coordinates of rock samples within each grid, the migration mass fractions of each principal element corresponding to the rock samples within each grid, the high field strength elements corresponding to the rock samples within each grid, and the light and heavy rare earth ratios corresponding to the rock samples within each grid, a heat map was drawn using Kriging interpolation to obtain a spatial migration map of element mass. The spatial coordinates of surface samples were determined and recorded using a GPS locator, while the spatial coordinates of borehole samples were calculated and recorded using the borehole opening coordinates, borehole direction and inclination, and sample depth.
[0064] In another exemplary embodiment of this application, the extent of sodium-modified hydrothermal uranium mineralization within the uranium exploration area is determined based on the anomalous regions corresponding to the migration mass fractions of each major element in the elemental mass space migration map, the anomalous regions corresponding to high field strength elements and their corresponding values, and the anomalous regions corresponding to the ratios of light and heavy rare earth elements. Specifically, this includes:
[0065] Within the uranium exploration area, the lower limit values of anomalies for each indicator (migration mass fraction of each major element, high field strength elements, and the ratio of light to heavy rare earth elements) are first determined.
[0066] Based on the lower limit of the anomaly, determine the anomaly regions corresponding to the migration mass fractions of each principal element, the high field strength elements and their corresponding anomaly regions, and the anomaly regions corresponding to the ratio of light to heavy rare earth elements in the element mass space migration diagram.
[0067] The range in which at least three indicators overlap can be used to determine if it is a sodium-modified hydrothermal uranium mineralization range.
[0068] The method for determining the extent of sodium metasomatic hydrothermal uranium mineralization provided in this application is based on rock geochemistry and has the advantages of high spatial resolution, high efficiency and accuracy. It can significantly improve the success rate of delineating surface outcrops and deep concealed sodium metasomatic hydrothermal uranium mineralization, improve prospecting efficiency and success rate, and reduce prospecting costs.
[0069] This application is applicable to the exploration of sodium metasomatic hydrothermal uranium deposits in various surrounding rocks, including sedimentary and igneous rocks. It is particularly effective in predicting concealed ore bodies when there are a large number of borehole samples.
[0070] This application can accurately characterize the migration patterns of elements, effectively identify weak geochemical signals on the surface and in concealed mineralization, and significantly reduce the errors of manual interpretation and avoid misjudgment based on a single indicator.
[0071] The high spatial resolution of this application can significantly improve the accuracy and efficiency of delineation of sodium metasomatic hydrothermal uranium mineralization, and can provide a scientific basis for further prediction of mineralization prospective areas and selection of target areas.
[0072] This application has a working area of 25km². 2 Taking the peripheral exploration of a sodium-replaced hydrothermal uranium deposit as an example, this paper details the method for determining the extent of sodium-replaced hydrothermal uranium mineralization provided in the above embodiments. The specific steps are as follows: Figure 2 As shown, it includes:
[0073] Step 1: Determine the spatial scope of uranium exploration based on lithology, structure, and alteration.
[0074] The spatial extent of sodium metasomatic hydrothermal uranium deposit exploration is determined based on favorable lithological identification, structural analysis, and hydrothermal alteration mineral assemblage.
[0075] Three types of rock bodies are distributed within the exploration area: Early Paleozoic diorite, Late Paleozoic granite, and Mesozoic granodiorite. The Late Paleozoic granite, a remelted continental crustal type, is the most favorable lithology for uranium mineralization. This granite is silica- and alkali-rich. The main structural features within the exploration area are northwest- and northeast-trending, with northwest-trending fault structures being the most favorable for mineralization. Hydrothermal alteration is evident in the rocks, including limonite, hematite, carbonatization, chloritization, fluoritization, albite alteration, and kaolinization. The favorable alteration mineral assemblage consists of hematite, calcite, chlorite, fluorite, and albite. Based on the spatial distribution characteristics of these ore-controlling elements, the spatial range for uranium exploration is determined to be 9.0 km. 2 ;
[0076] Step 2: Grid sampling and record the spatial location of sample points.
[0077] Geological sampling is conducted within the spatial area defined in step 1, using a grid. Each grid represents one sample point, and the spatial coordinates of each sample point are recorded. Specifically, within the uranium exploration area defined in step 1, grid sampling is performed at intervals of 300m × 300m, and the spatial coordinates of the surface samples are recorded using a GPS locator.
[0078] Step 3: Analyze the major elements, high field strength, and rare earth elements in the sample.
[0079] The contents of Al, some major elements, high field strength elements, and rare earth elements closely related to uranium migration were analyzed in the rock samples taken from each sampling point in step 2 above. Major elements closely related to uranium migration include Na, K, Si, P, Fe, and Ti; high field strength elements include Nb, Ta, Zr, and Hf; and rare earth elements include La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Pm, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb, and Lu.
[0080] Specifically, whole-rock geochemical analysis is performed on the collected rock samples to determine the content of each element.
[0081] Al and major elements were analyzed using X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy. Whole rock samples were first ground into 200-mesh powder, mixed uniformly with lithium borate (LiBO2 and Li2B4O7) flux, and then fired into glass slides. The samples were then analyzed using an Axios X-ray spectrometer, and the elements were corrected for the theoretical α coefficient.
[0082] Trace element (high field strength elements and rare earth elements) analysis was performed using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Samples were dissolved in a sealed dissolution vessel using Hf + HNO3, and the Hf was evaporated off on a hot plate. The solution was then sealed with nitric acid, diluted, and analyzed by ICP-MS. All measured sample data, along with coordinates, were summarized in an Excel spreadsheet.
[0083] Step 4: Calculate the normalization factor K of the sample elements.
[0084] Calculate the normalization factor value K for each sampling point in step 3 above. The normalization factor value K is determined by the inactive component Al element in the uranium mineralization process, using the Al2O3 content of fresh rocks (unweathered and unaltered) in the working area as a benchmark. For any grid, according to the formula K = C k A / C k O Calculate the normalization factor value corresponding to the rock sample within the grid, where C k A and C k O The values represent the aluminum content in the altered rock sample within the grid and the aluminum content in the fresh rock within the grid, respectively. The calculation results are summarized in an Excel table.
[0085] Step 5: Create an element mass space migration map for element migration.
[0086] For any given grid, according to the formula The standardized and corrected data for the i-th major element, i.e., the migration mass fraction of the i-th major element, is calculated. Major elements are represented by their oxide content. Additionally, for high field strength elements, the sums of Zr, Hf, Nb, and Ta elements need to be calculated. For rare earth elements, the ratio of total light rare earth elements to total heavy rare earth elements needs to be calculated. All sample index values and spatial coordinates are compiled, and data processing and geochemical mapping are performed using Kriging interpolation in Surfer 15 software to obtain the elemental mass spatial migration map. It is important to note that when drawing the elemental mass spatial migration map, within the exploration area, in addition to gridded sampling data, previously obtained rock geochemical data from certain specific locations can be fully utilized. Both can be used together for data processing and geochemical mapping, such as... Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 Parts a, b, c, and d in the diagram represent the spatial migration diagrams of elemental mass corresponding to Na, Ti, P, and the ratio of light to heavy rare earth elements, respectively.
[0087] Step 6: Filter out abnormal areas displayed by different indicators. Based on the elemental quality space migration map established in Step 5 above, initially filter out abnormal areas displayed by each indicator.
[0088] Within the uranium exploration area, anomaly lower limits are determined based on standardized data for each indicator. For example, for elements migrating out during uranium mineralization, an anomaly lower limit of -0.4 is selected; for elements migrating in during uranium mineralization, an anomaly lower limit of 2 is selected; and the anomaly areas for each indicator are delineated based on the anomaly values.
[0089] Step 7: Perform big data overlay analysis to delineate favorable spatial locations for sodium-replaced hydrothermal uranium mineralization. The anomalous areas extracted in Step 6 are spatially overlaid to identify multiple anomalous overlay regions, thus delineating the favorable spatial locations for sodium-replaced hydrothermal uranium mineralization, i.e., the range of sodium-replaced hydrothermal uranium mineralization.
[0090] like Figure 4 As shown, anomaly areas with multiple indicators were extracted, and spatial overlay analysis was conducted to screen out areas where the anomaly areas of at least three indicators overlapped, thus determining favorable spatial locations for sodium-alternating hydrothermal uranium mineralization.

[0093] The grid acquisition module is used to grid the uranium exploration area and acquire the contents of major elements, high field strength elements and rare earth elements in the rock samples within each grid.
