New Understanding Of Lithium Isotopic Evolution From Source To Deposita Case Study Of The Qaidam Basin

Objective The lithium-rich deep brine of the western Qaidam Basin is the successor of the lithium-rich salt lake on the surface.The identification of the lithium source has been a topic of intense interest among geologists.The dissolved lithium in lithium-rich protoliths transported to the basin through surface river water is considered as an important source of lithium in deep brine.The geochemical characteristics of lithium isotopes as they move from source
