Abstract Botanogeochemical prospecting tests conducted in gold and copper deposits of the study area show that Au in all plant species of gold ore deposits and Cu in all plant species of copper ore deposits belong to extremely high or high contrast type,and the prospecting for gold and copper deposits in the study area are effective by using Au and Cu content in a variety of plant species. On the basis of characteristic elements in plants, the gold and copper mineralization types can be identified. According to element combination and zonation of vegetation geochemical anomalies, the positions of concealed ore bodes can be predicted, and the erosion depth and deep mineralization scale of the concealed ore bodes can also be deduced.
