Abstract In view of the remarkable depletion of such major components as CaO, MgO and Na2O in the drill holes,
in combination with the obvious alteration zoning and the mineralization characteristics of the Wunugetushan
porphyry CuMo deposit, the authors have found that the information of the depletion of CaO, MgO and Na2O in the
drill holes has reflection at surface. In this paper geochemical characteristics of 47 kinds of elements in this
ore deposit were studied. The enrichment and depletion characteristics of these elements as well as the overall
element geochemical features comprising metallogenic elements and such components as CaO, MgO and Na2O are
discussed in detail. In addition, a model for geochemical anomaly structure of the Wunugetushan porphyry CuMo
deposit is put forward. The results obtained by the authors are of great significance in improving and perfecting
the geochemical exploration method and theory for CuMo porphyry deposits.
