摘要
Multi-constraints are used in this paper to discuss the ΣCO<sub>2</sub> source in oreforming hydrothermal solution of granite-type uranium deposit in South China. The studies show that highly acidic and uraniferous granitic magma cannot produce the fluid rich in ΣCO<sub>2</sub>. Controlled by three periods of crust extension and corresponding to three major periods of U-mineralization in South China respectively, the ΣCO<sub>2</sub> in each ore-forming hydrothermal solutions is all mantle-derived. Our studies reasonably explain why the mineralization did not occur immediately after the end of differentiation of the granitic magma rich in uranium, and why the ore-forming time of granite-type uranium deposit focuses on the time of crust extension after the formation of the uraniferous granites.
