ObjectiveHydrothermal uranium deposits in South China have become one of the main uranium producers over the past several decades. Numerous uranium deposits are densely distributed in the Guidong and Zhuguangshan plutons of the Nanling region, which constitute the largest uranium mineralization area in China (Cai Yuqi et al., 2015). The Mianhuakeng (MHK) uranium deposit, one of the largest granite-type uranium deposits in South China, is located in the central-southern part of the Zhuguangshan pluton, northern Guangdong Province, and is characterized by high grade ores (U: 0.01%–1.2%), large reserves (> 10000 t) and a large vertical extent of mineralization (ca. 1000 m). Abundant studies have carried out on the genesis of the MHK deposit. However, the accurate uranium mineralization age is still poorly constrained. A uraninite in-situ LA-ICP-MS U-Pb geochronological study was carried out for the first time in this paper, in order to obtain a precise and accurate mineralization age for the MHK deposit, and to further evaluate the mechanism of uranium mineralization.
