A study of the geochemical characteristics of the Gaofeng mining area shows that the gold deposit has the following regularities: (1) The element combination is composed of Au, As, Pb, Zn, Co, the accompanying elements include Ag, Bi Mo, Cu, Sb etc., and the Co/Ni ratios can be used as a basis in search for concealed ore belt. (2) The combinations of trace elements in the two deposits of the Gaofeng mining area are different, the main mineralization of Gaofeng is of the quartz vein type, the combination of trace elements is composed of Au, As, Pb, Zn, Cu, (Co, Ni); the Dengwu gold deposit is of quartz vein complex stockwork mineralization, and the combination of trace elements comprises Au, As, Pb, Zn, Cu, (Co, Ni). (3) The Geligeliang method reveals that vertical zoning of the Gaofeng mining area is characterized by {Pb-Zn-Ag} for pre-ore halo, {As-Au-Cu-Ni} for ore halo, and {Bi-Mo-Co} for post-ore halo. These geochemical characteristics provide a basis for deep and peripheral prospecting.
