Three uranium occurrences were discovered in the Haita region: A10, A19, and 2811 within about 500m of each other. 8.7 km southwest of Miyi County.
Occurrence 2811 is characterized by the discovery of a lens-shaped quartz vein containing megacrystalline uraninite within the structural fracture zone of a migmatized plagioclase gneiss.
Occurrence A19 is mainly uranium-molybdenum paragenesis-type uranium mineralization, and the host rocks is felsic.
Occurrence A10 exhibited severe weathering, and only secondary uranium minerals were visible.
