The thickness of the Jiujialu Formation varies from several meters to more than twenty meters and contains three layers based on the following lithologic characteristics from bottom to top: (1) the lower layer is 0 to 8 m thick, consisting of iron-rich bauxitic claystone and bauxitic claystone, (2) the middle layer is 0 to 10 m thick, consisting of stratiform and lenticular bauxite orebodies, and (3) the upper layer is 0 to 6 m thick, consisting of bauxitic claystone, carbonaceous shale with abundant pyrite nodules, and fossil plant fragments (Figure 3a). The bauxite ore is grey and is represented by clastic, pisolitic, and compact structures. Geochemical data suggest that the Lindai bauxite deposit was mainly derived from a mixed lithology, including underlying Cambrian Shilengshui Formation dolomite, hydromica claystone, and purple-red mudstone, rather than single dolomite considered by previous studies.
