中国地下卤水铀资源及潜力分析

Preliminary Study on Uranium Resource of Underground Brine and Its Potential in China

地下卤水是一种宝贵的液态矿,除含有NaCl之外,还含有溴、碘、硼、锂、钾等多种元素,相关研究表明,地下卤水中还含有一定量的铀元素。通过对莱州湾南岸、安棚碱矿及四川自贡3个地区地下卤水的初步分析,认为中国是一个地下卤水储量丰富的国家,随着高矿度卤水微量铀元素提取技术的进步及国家对地下卤水资源勘探投入的增加,地下卤水铀资源的勘查将具有重要的意义及良好的发展前景。

Underground brine liquid mineral is one of the precious liquid mineral. Besides NaC1, it con- tains Br, I, B, Li, K and other elements. Results of correlation study indicated that the underground brine aiso contains U. Through the preliminary discussion and analysis on underground brine in Laizhou bay, Anpeng alkali deposit and Zigong, we found that China is rich in underground brine and have good prospect in developing uranium resources from underground brine with technical progress on extracting trace uranium from high salinity brine and the increasing investment on the exploration of undeground brine resources.
