Abstract The Xiaoxigong gold deposit is an important deposit in Beishan arid desert gobi relict mountain landscape region. A comparative study of geochemical exploration methods and techniques were carried out in the Xiaoxigong gold deposit and its periphery. The authors conducted a systematic investigation into the interference characteristics of aeolian deposits in the stream sediments and soil as well as the effectiveness and applicability of the stream sediment survey and soil survey. The results show that soil survey should be taken as the first preference in the two geochemical exploration methods in the Xiaoxigong gold deposit and its periphery as well as in the areas whose arid desert gobi relict mountain landscape is similar to that of the Xiaoxigong gold deposit.
