Metallogenic Geological Conditions and Prospecting Indicators of the Carbonate-Hosted Pb-Zn Deposits in Northeastern Yunnan Province, China

Abstract:

Based on large scale geological mapping, geological-section, tectonic and geochemical studies on the carbonate-hosted Pb-Zn deposits in NE Yunnan, the metallogenic geological conditions are discussed, and the ore-prospecting indicators are summarized. The Pb-Zn deposits have many common features, which are mainly controlled by the thrust fault-fold structures and lithological conditions. The ore-forming mechanism of them is similar to the MVT Pb-Zn deposit. The combination of thrust fault-fold structures and altered carbonate rocks with geochemical anomalies are good indicators for prospecting.
