This paper has described the principle of the contact polarization curve method and the technique for measuring basic parameters, analyzed the influence of such factors as oxidation conditions of the ore deposits, arrangement of electrodes and structures of orebodies on the basis of studying some typical polarization curves, inferred several parameters such as independency of orebodies, reacted minerals, effective areas of reacted minerals, reserves of elements and grades of elements for some measured typical curves, and compared the inferences with the exploration results. It is held that the contact polarization curve method, being an exploration technique characterized jointly by immediacy, long distance and totality, is especially suitable for conductive sulfide ore deposits.
