GEOLOGICAL CHARACTERISITCS AND EXPLOITATION PROSPECT OF THE BAIYANGCUN QUARTZITE DEPOSIT IN WESTERN LIAONING PROVINCE

The Baiyangcun quartzite ore in Huludao City, Western Liaoning Province is hosted in the Jing'eryu formation of Qingbaikou system on the north limb of the Bijiashan syncline. The continuous single ore bed with stable thickness is distributed in the monoclinic east-west direction. With the main type of thick or mega-thick grey-white quartzite, the ore is characterized by high silicon and low alkali, which is a matchable component of siliceous raw ore for high-alkali cement production together with the limestone from Western Liaoning. Combining the above analysis with the actual situation of the high-alkali cement-used limestone in Western Liaoning, the paper discusses the prospect of exploration and exploitation of the ore to provide a reference for local cement production.
