The Lujing uranium ore field is one of the most significant hard- rock uranium ore fields in South China. It hosts numerous small uranium deposits and occurrences, including the large Lujing uranium deposit (322) and four medium- sized deposits: Shabazi (327), Gaoxi (326), Huangfengling (325), and Niuweiling (324). Previous studies lacked a systematic analysis of the ore- controlling structures in the ore field. Based on field structural investigations and exploration results from the past decade, this paper systematically examines the characteristics of ore- bearing structures and related issues, analyzes the structural types of the ore field, and constructs an evolutionary model of ore- controlling structures. The surrounding rocks of the uranium ore bodies are Mesozoic granite and Cambrian shallow metamorphic clastic rocks. Uranium ore bodies in granite are controlled by NNE (NE)- trending faults, with a slight ENE orientation. In contrast, uranium ore bodies in shallow metamorphic clastic rocks are associated with WNW (near east- west)- trending faults. The ore- guiding structure of the ore field is associated with the regional extensional tectonic environment, along with related magmatic activity and rock intrusion structure. The ore- transporting structure consists of high- angle normal faults and rock mass emplacement structures connected to deep gas- liquid thermal fluids, with their upper parts linked to ore- bearing structures of varying orientations. Ore- bearing structures include structural traces formed during mineralization, pre- mineralization structural traces, and active structures during mineralization. Ore- controlling structures, however, are probably limited to those formed during mineralization. The structural and mineralization evolution of the ore field can be divided into nine stages: ① formation of basement fold, ② emplacement of Indosinian intrusions, ③ emplacement of early Yanshan intrusions, ④ formation of NNE- trending ore- bearing structures from the end of late Jurassic to the early stage of late early Cretaceous, ⑤ emplacement of EW- trending basic dikes in the late stage of late early Cretaceous, ⑥ uranium mineralization in the late early Cretaceous to early late Cretaceous, ⑦ uplift and denudation in the early late Cretaceous, ⑧ burial and preservation of ore by red bed basin from the late Cretaceous to early Paleogene, and ⑨ uplift and re- denudation since the middle Paleogene. The Fengzhou red bed basin has no direct genetic relationship with uranium mineralization but plays a role in preserving uranium deposits formed prior to its development. Favorable areas for further prospecting include the Fengshuxia- Niuweiling- Jiaoyelong- Shabazi area and the Dachangping- Dongfangzi- Lujing- Miaobeilong area, which are covered by the Fengzhou red bed basin.
