The Northeastern Ordos Basin is one of important metallogenic belt for sandstone-type uranium deposits in China and is rich in uranium resources. Previous study shows that uranium deposits in the area are closely related to ancient interlayer. Previously discovered uranium deposits are located in the lower member of the Zhiluo Formation Middle Jurassic. Regionally uranium deposits are apparently controlled by ancient interlayer oxidation zone (Xiao et al., 2004; Miao et al., 2010). So, the research on development characteristics of the ancient interlayer oxidized sandstone is of particular importance.
