The results show that the amount of REEs （185.56-729.46 ×10-6） is high. The ratios of w（LREE）/w（HREE） （6.84- 13.86） and W（La）N/w（Yb）N （1.01-3.02） show clear differentiation of LREEs and HREEs. ZREE has a significantly or critically positive correlation with lithophile elements Th, Nb, Ta, Ti, Ca, Sc, Cs, Zr, Hf, Sr, Be and chaicophile element Zn, a critically negative correlation with siderophile element Fe and a slightly positive correlation with illite, illite smectite mixed layers and siderite.
