Abstract

The Xiangshan uranium deposit of Southern China is a Mesozoic volcanic uranium deposit where mineralization is closely associated with regional rock deformation and fluid flow. To better understand the genesis of this deposit, we have carried out coupled deformation and fluid flow modeling to explore the relationship between mineralizing fluid flow and structural deformation processes. The numerical modeling results demonstrate that fluid transport and focusing are predominantly controlled by deposit scale structures and associated rock deformation.
