The Zoujiashan deposit in the western Xiangshan Basin is the largest uranium deposit in the Xiangshan ore field, with a total uranium reserve of over 10,000 tonnes and average grades ranging from 0.1 to 0.3%. The lithologies in the basement are metamorphic rocks, primarily comprising biotite quartz schist and sericite schist, locally interspersed with slate and metamorphic sandstone. Overlaying the Precambrian basement are Lower Cretaceous volcanic unites, i.e., the Daguding and Eheling formations. The orebodies are primarily hosted within porphyroclastic lava, featuring hematite-type and fluorite-type mineralization. The wall rocks in the Zoujiashan deposit are characterized with multiple alterations, such as hematitization, illitization, albitization, chloritization, carbonatization, sericitization and silicification. It is common that fluorite veins are enclosed by hematitized and illitized rocks on both sides).

Significant alkali metasomatism is present in the Xiangshan volcanic-related uranium ore field, which represents an important hydrothermal event predating the major uranium mineralization with acidic metasomatism. The hydrothermal feldspars are mainly present as veinlets and replace the primary magmatic ones. In addition, the hydrothermal feldspars have different K and Na content compared to the magmatic ones. Specifically, hydrothermal feldspars are characterized by significant Ca and Sr depletion, which is attributed to the extensive consumption of Ca from fluids during fluorite and calcite precipitation. Furthermore, hydrothermal feldspars are generally Fe-rich and associated with widespread hematitization, consistent with the high oxygen fugacity of fluids.
