Abstract

Shuangyuangou-Chigou porphyry body is located between EW-direction deep and huge faults of Shangzhou-Danfeng and Shanyang-Fengzhen.This small body belongs to Yanshanian intermediate-acidic intrusive rock with complicated shapes,intensive alteration and alteration zonation.Wallrocks include mainly Devonian sandstones and siltstones.The body is controlled by secondary NWW and NNE faults,and similar to domestic and oversea Cu-bearing porphyry.Metallogenic factors are predominant for porphyry Cu deposits,and the area has a large metallogenic potential for porphyry Cu(Mo) deposits.
