Abstract

Based on gold analyses of 213 samples of the Shuangqiaoshan Group in an area of 225 km2 with the Yinshan polymetallic ore district as the centre, a depleted zone of gold is recognized around the ore district, suggesting that the Shuangqiaoshan Group may be a source bed for gold. Discussions were given concerning the alteration-mineralization features of the Yinshan deposit, the ore-controlling mechanism of the NE-trending fault zone and promising targets for further ore prospecting.
