In the process of in situ leaching of uranium, the microstructure controls and influences the flow distribution, percolation characteristics, and reaction mechanism of lixivium in the pores of reservoir rocks and directly affects the leaching of useful components. In this study, the pore throat, pore size distribution, and mineral composition of low-permeability uranium-bearing sandstone were quantitatively analyzed by high pressure mercury injection, nuclear magnetic resonance, X-ray diffraction, and wavelength-dispersive X-ray fluorescence.
