Shaling Gold District is located in the northeast of Laizhou City,Shandong Province,and is on the Jiaodong Jiaojia Fault gold metallogenic belt.Based on the comprehensive analysis of engineering background,regional hydrogeological characteristics,and district hydrogeological characteristics,the study takes that the water-bearing strata mainly include Quaternary fissure water water-bearing strata,matrix weathering zone fissure water water-bearing strata,hanging wall(extremely) weakly water-rich water-bearing strata,footwall weakly water-rich water-bearing strata,and the water-resisting strata mainly consist of the fault mud and the cataclasite on both sides in Jiaojia Fault.The study compared the water inrush amount in vertical shafts predicted by engineering exploration drill and the actual water inrush during the construction of vertical shaft excavation and analyzed the influence factors leading to more water consumption in actual situations,providing references to master the hydrogeological characteristics deep in Jiaojia Fault.
