The authors selected this deposit and used the multivariate statistical analysis to study the types of association of main ore-forming elements at different temperatures and pressures and their distribution in the deposit. On that basis combined with the structural analysis of the deposit, the recto-geochemical features of No.6 East tin deposit have been revealed and the direction and channel of migration of the ore solutions in faults and the deposit have been deduced. This research can appropriately elucidate the control of faults on the migration of ore solutions and the sites where ore solutions are dispersed and accumulated, thus providing the theoretical basis for the prediction of hydrothermal deposits in question.展开更多

As a giant ore deposit, it deposited in middle of the Nandang Hechi metallogenic zone. The ore hosting strata are of the Devonion, which shows the evident characteristics of polymetallic elements, i.e., Sn, Zn, Pb, Sb, As, Cu, Ag, In, Ge, Cd, et al., and over 1 000 000 t tin reserves.展开更多

The resultant plateau ages yielded by three orthoclase specimens 2KL-17, 99LQ-2 and 2KL-31 (Note: The last one was taken from the part of granite which had been attrib-uted to Cailing super-unit of the Indosinian Period by the former researchers) collected from the said granite are (139.57±.79) Ma, (140.55±.81) Ma and (144.91 ±.90) Ma respectively. The above-mentioned ages represent the closed 40Ar/39Ar age of the orthoclase. The consistency in age dating results, the similarity in geochemical characteristics and rock textures, and the Nw-SE orientation of orthoclase phenocrysts almost throughout the granite, provide evidence for the inti-mate relationship between the Furong super-unit and the Cailing super-unit that form the main part of the granite, suggesting that they are products of comagmatic conjugate differentiation during the Late Jurassic. This paper also makes a comparison between the ditianling granite and the Qianlishan granite.展开更多
