China National Nuclear Co. starts 3,000 m deep drilling project for uranium

The CUSD2-1 project will be realiszed in the Xiangshan Uranium Mine in Jiangxi. China’s largest volcanic-type uranium ore field, the Xiangshan ore field, plays a very important role in safeguarding uranium resources in China. At present, the exploration of this ore field is mainly limited to the shallow surface, and the research on the deep metallogenic environment and conditions is less involved. Deep scientific drilling is a “telescope” for exploring deep uranium resources. The project team will carry out three-dimensional three-dimensional exploration of the deep ore-forming environment of the Xiangshan uranium ore field, reveal the uranium polymetallic resource ore-forming conditions, build a 3,000-meter deep metallogenic information identification technology, and provide technical demonstration for large-depth uranium polymetallic prospecting.
