The geotectonic location of the Mogeerxue Au-Sb Deposit is within the Late Paleozoic-Early Mesozoic suture zone of the Jingyu Lake-Animaqing tectonic belt. In the study area, one 1:50 000 stream sediment survey anomaly and four 1:10 000 soil geochemical survey anomalies have been delineated, with Au and Sb as the primary anomalous elements. The anomaly center is significant, with numerous Au and Sb peak values, reaching a maximum of 712.00x10-9 for Au and 71.0x10-6 for Sb. The spatial distribution of anomalies is strictly controlled by fault structures. Preliminary anomaly verification has identified 2 ore belts and 6 orebodies, with orebody lengths of 60-100 m and thicknesses of 0.86-2.80 m. Au grades range from 1.33x10-6 to 6.37x10-6, while Sb grades range from 1.34 % to 14.37 %. Minera-lization and alteration are characterized by sericitization, silicification, pyritization, and stibnite mineralization. Compre-hensive analysis suggests that fault structures serve as favorable mineralization pathways and enrichment sites, with all identified orebodies occurring within near EW-trending faults, specifically F, and F, near EW-trending faults, which are directly related to mineralization. The mineralized belts contain late-stage pyritized and stibnite-mineralized diorite porphyry dikes, while the orebody floor consists of gabbro, providing thermodynamic energy for mineralization. The roof comprises siliceous slate, which is dense and hard, acting as an effective sealing barrier that facilitates the activation, migration, and enrichment of Au and Sb. The geochemical anomalies exhibit high reproducibility, with numerous Au and Sb peaks, indicating highly favorable metallogenic conditions. Future prospecting should focus on tectonic alteration type Au-Sb mineralization to achieve a breakthrough in exploration.
