Abstract:In order to study the ore-potential of the area around the Xiaohe rock body in southern Xiaoqinling, the authors chose 1∶50 000 8-Yi 3AgWBi stream sediment anomaly, Meso-Proterozoic Xiaohe rock body and F1 fault at the contact zone of Meso-Proterozoic Buandaokou Group to conduct geological, geophysical and geochemical integrated exploration. Soil survey led to the discovery of the Zhangjikou 1-Jia 3 Ag Au Sb Zn Pb As Co Cu Mo B composite anomaly characterized by relatively good element combination, large anomaly area and high intensity, in which the highest value of Ag is higher than 20×10-6, with distinct three-grade concentration zoning and relatively strong concentration center; IP sounding predicted that F1 fault extends downward, surface trenching discovered a silver orebody at 1-Jia 3 anomaly in F1 structural alteration zone, and drilling revealed the existence of a thick and large Ag-Pb-Zn orebody. The discovery of this ore deposit has realized the ore-prospecting breakthrough at the southern edge of Xiaohe rock body, and also serves as a typical example of the application of the geological, geophysical and geochemical integrated exploration.
