Abstract

In northern margin of Junggar, there are some basic metallurgical types of gold deposits named epithermal gold deposits, altered mylonite type gold deposits related to ductile shear zone, hypabassal and structeral altered rocks type gold deposits, and so on. By analyzing and comparing its REE date related to these typical gold deposits, some chondrite normalized REE distribution patterns for these gold deposits are established and the differences in REE geochemical action related to gold deposits and its relationship between gold mineralization and REE characteristics are discussed. The differences of REE actions of different gold deposits mean that their mineralizing process and forming environment are different. It has been thought that the mineralization of hypabassal and structural altered rocks type gold deposits is relatively simple, the altered mylonite type gold deposits related to ductile shear zones is more complicated, and the epithermal gold deposits is the most complicated one to their REE geochemical features. The mineralizing process of hypabassal and structural altered rocks type gold deposits is mainly controlled by its host intermediate acid hypabassal complexes and correlative regional metamorphism, the mineralization of epithermal gold deposits is mainly controlled by some small scale complexes, volcanic strata, volcanic apparatus and compound fractures ,and altered mylonite type gold deposit is broadly controlled by ductile shear zone and its concrete mineralization is mainly controlled by mylonitization.
