Abstract

The superlarge Fe-Nb-REE ore deposit at Baiyun Obo is one of the most large Nb-REE ore deposits in the world,which is hosted by dolomite in the Baiyun Obo Formation of Middle Prpterozoic age. In this paper the tectonic setting,regional geology,regional distribution,occurrence,petrology, mineralogy and C-,O-,Sr-isotopic geochemistry of the ore-bearing dolomite in Baiyun Obo, Inner Mongolia,China are studied. The ore-bearing dolomite is only located in the Baiyun Obo Formation of Middle Proterozoic age. It shows some features of normal marine sedimentary carbonate, such as special time-stratigraphic distribution,stratiform and lens shaped, laminated and bedded structures, conformable contact and synchronous fold with wall rocks; and some features of magmatic carbonatite,such as distribution along deep fault,thin dolomite vein cutting wall rocks in heading wall, so the dolomite is neither the normal marine sedimentary carbonate northe magmatic carbonatite. The dolomite distributed along regional fault in stratiform,stratifold and lentiform was controlled by second tectonic basin. The dolomite thickness in center is much larger, and the thickness in marginal is much smaller or thin out. The dolomite displays special "eye-type" structure,e. g massive strucure in the center part, banded and laminated in the margin. The dolomite shows "two-end structures",e. g. stratiform body is located in upper part and vein in lower part,in which the stratigraphic position of the vein dolomite is not overstep the stratigraphic position of the stratiform dolomite. The ore-bearing dolomite have 8180 per mil values between +6.4 and +16.5,andδ¹³Cvalues between-4.7 and +1.4,which is located between the normal marine sedimentary and magmatic car- bonates. ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr data have confirmed this conclution. To sum up,authors believes that the dolomite was formed by hydrothermal venting which was circulating in submarine.
