Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of uranium resource exploration, and in particular relates to a method for calculating the buried depth of a deep contact zone of uranium-rich granite. Background Art
[0002] Granite-type uranium deposits refer to uranium deposits that are genetically related to granite bodies and are produced in or near the rock body. They are one of the four major types of uranium deposits in my country. Since the discovery of the first uranium ore in New China, several decades have passed, and multiple granite-type uranium deposits have been confirmed. The mineralization locations that have been found are mainly closely related to the rock body, the contact zone of the strata, and the fault structure. In particular, the contact zone between the uranium-rich granite rock body and the deep strata is often more conducive to large-scale mineralization, and it is also easy to form large and rich mines.
[0003] However, the boundary between the exposed granite and other lithologies or strata is relatively easy to find, while the contact zone of the deep granite is difficult to locate, especially in the granite areas in the south where the sedimentary strata are thick and the vegetation is well developed. The division of the contact zone and the determination of the buried depth are very difficult, which makes the current search for deep rock contact zone uranium deposits lack technical support, often miss the deep prospecting space, and cause the potential mineralization area to remain undiscovered. The direct drilling method is blind and costly, and the feasibility is very low.
[0004] Therefore, developing a calculation method that can calculate the position and burial depth of the deep contact zone of uranium-rich granite is the key to breaking through the deep granite lithological contact zone type uranium deposits. Summary of the invention

If there is no water system in the sampling grid, sampling can be carried out at the bottom of a smaller dry ditch.
