Deposit Type |
Sandstone - Basal Channel | ||
Geological Setting |
Lithology: alluvial sediments composed of pink oxidized and grey reduced sandy gravel, sandstone and conglomerate interbedded with silty mudstone. Tectonics: Paleochannel systems occupy the eastern foreland of the Caledonian Ural mountains. The channels were incised into a basement of Devonian felsic volcanics, continental and marine sediments. Alteration: Oxidation and re-reduction alteration Hostrock Age: Middle-Upper Jurassic | ||
Age of Mineralization |
|||
Mineralization |
Ore Mineralogy: coffinite and pitchblende Mineralization Description: Single ore bodies are 400 to 4500m long, 50 to 700m wide, 2 to 12 m thick. Thickness of the front part of roll can reach 20m. Ore Controls: Uranium distribution is controlled by redox boundaries in sand-gravel aquifers. | ||
