Lujing Uranium ore field, Chongyi Co., Ganzhou Prefecture, Jiangxi Province, China

One of the largest uranium ore fields in China, located in the eastern part of the Zhuguang granitic complex, which forms part of the Nanling granite belt. The area is largely underlain by the Mesozoic Lujing composite batholith (also known as Sanerer pluton), which intruded into weakly metamorphosed Precambrian and Cambrian sediments. Most of the deposits in the Lujing ore field are granite-hosted (intragranitic); the Shabazi deposit and the eastern section of the Lujing deposit are hosted in metamorphic sediments (perigranitic deposits).
