The Ordos Basin is a key district for sandstone-hosted uranium, yet host-rock controls and uranium sources remain debated. We integrate measured sections, whole-rock geochemistry, and detrital zircon U-Pb-Lu-Hf data from the Cretaceous Huanhe Formation (Yihewusu, northern Ordos) to resolve provenance, transport, and enrichment pathways. Uranium enrichment is concentrated in feldspathic-lithic sandstones deposited in proximal fluvial-lacustrine settings. Detrital zircon ages define three clusters—Phanerozoic (500–200 Ma), Paleoproterozoic (2000–1700 Ma), and Neoarchean (2600–2300 Ma)—with Proterozoic grains >60%, indicating derivation from Archean–Paleoproterozoic TTG gneisses, granulites, and khondalites of the Yinshan Block and the northern Central Orogenic Belt. Zircon εHf(t) values (−10.84 to +7.76) and crustal model ages (3.2–2.1 Ga) record substantial Meso- to Neoarchean crustal growth in the source terranes. Critically, Permian-Cretaceous intermediate-felsic igneous rocks along the northern margin of the Western North China Block—marked by elevated U, Th/U > 5 (indicative of U loss), pervasive feldspar micro-fractures, and proximity to basin-margin uranium belts—are identified as the principal uranium reservoirs. We propose a dual uranium supply: soluble uranium mobilized from leached igneous rocks during weathering and fluid-rock interaction, and U-enriched detritus delivered to the basin. Uranium concentrated in redox-sensitive, feldspathic-lithic sandstones of the Huanhe Formation, which effectively trapped advected uranium at proximal facies transitions. These findings establish a direct genetic link between basin-margin uranium sources and in-basin mineralization, providing a predictive framework for regional uranium exploration in North China.
