Abstract:
Gold deposits are widespread in the Xuefeng tectonic belt,which is one of the most important gold-producing areas in China.However,factors controlling gold ores in the tectonic belt have not yet been fully understood.The study of ore-controlling factors is of great significance to the summary of gold metallogenesis and the exploration of gold resources.The ore-controlling factors of gold deposits in the Xuefeng tectonic belt are discussed from the perspective of stratigraphy,tectonics,and magmatism.Based on the spatial and temporal distribution characteristics of the gold deposits,the ore-forming mechanism of these deposits is investigated.The results show that tectonics is a necessary condition for gold mineralization,while the Precambrian stratigraphy and regional magmatic activity are only favorable conditions.The gold mineralization of the Xuefeng tectonic belt is concentrated in the Caledonian and Indosinian-Yanshanian periods,which is consistent with the view that the ore-forming fluids originated mainly from precipitation.Gold deposits in the Xuefeng tectonic belt belong to the metamorphic clastic rock type.
