This study focuses on the rare uranium mineralization phenomenon discovered in the Tamsu uranium deposit of Yin’e basin that part of uranium ores contain a large amount of apatite. The lithology,mineralogy,and geochemistry of these uranium ores were studied in detail by microscope,SEM,EMPA,XRD and analysis of major and trace elements,strontium isotope and bulk rock U-Pb isotope,its genesis was also discussed. The rock types associated with phosphorus-rich uranium ores include purplish-red dolomitic phosphorite,grayish-white dolomitic phosphorite,phosphorus-bearing siltstone,medium phosphatic sandstone,and brecciated limestone. The whole rock P2O5 content of the samples ranges from 0.42 % to 27.74 %. The primary phosphorus-containing mineral is apatite which occurs as microcrystalline apatite (about 0.5 μm) aggregate and accounts for up to 70 % of the whole rock. These apatite were identified as carbonate-fluorapatite. Uranium content varies from 221×10-6 to 3 486×10-6 and show a significant positive correlation with P2O5 content,the rock’s water bursting breccia structure,REE patterns, and lower Sr isotope values indicated the participation of hydrothermal deposition during apatite formation. Whole rock U-Pb isochron age of purplish-red phosphorite is 54±5.2 Ma,implying that the phosphorite suffered the alteration by the interlayer oxidation derived from the Zongnaishan uplift event around 60 Ma. In summary, the formation of phosphorus-rich uranium ores in the Tamsu area was the product of multiple geological processes including hydrothermal deposition and interlayer oxidation
