Delingha depression in the eastern Qaidam basin is believed a potential area for sandstone type uranium deposit in the target stata of the Neogene Shizigou formation and the Shangyoushashan formation. The in-depth investigation on the sedimentary facies characteristics and evolution of strata will provide valuable guidance for uranium exploration. Detailed observations of lithofacies assemblages and sedimentary formation in field outcrops,drilling cores, and well logging analyses have identified that the alluvial fan-braided river delta-lake are the dominant sedimentary facies type in the study area. Among these,the distributary channels in the braided river delta plain and subaqueous distributary channels in the braided river delta front are well-developed with significant scale and good connectivity,providing a favorable sedimentary environment for uranium enrichment. This new understanding has contributed to the knowledge of the spatial and temporal distribution of sand bodies in the Shizigou formation and the Shangyoushashan formations in the eastern Qaidam basin,and provided key information in guiding the future prospecting and exploration.
