Abstract:
The characteristics of stable isotopes and fluid inclusions from the gold deposits in the Jinpingshan area, Sichuan are outlined in the light-of the background analysis of the element Au. The spatial distribution of the-gold deposits in this area is apparent to be controlled by the ductile shear zones of folded beds, i.e. the slip surfaces of the stretching and nappe structures in the gold mineralization areas. The mineralization model is summarized on the basis of the tectonic settings, ore sources, thermal sources, hydrothermal sources, ore channels and metallogenic sites of the gold deposits. According to the mineralization model, the exploration prospects of the gold deposits are tentatively proposed in this paper.
