Based on data processing of 1∶25 000 stream sediment survey in Hongshishan area, the authors delineated anomalies of such elements as W, Sn, Bi, Au, As, Sb, Cu, Pb and Zn, revealed distribution characteristics of anomalies in this area, evaluated prospecting significance of the anomalies, and determined element associations. According to characteristics of composite anomalies and element associations in combination with ore-forming geological setting, three ore-search prospective areas of W, Au and Cu were delineated, of which the optimized No.1 composite anomaly seems to be the best ore-prospecting target area for W and Au.
