Abstract

Suwuluke copper ore deposit is located at Cu-Au sub-metallogenic belt(Ⅵ2) of carboniferous system of the north of the Kungai mountain,where 13 copper mineral occurrences have been discovered.Most of them are hosted in Wuluat Group and Kzirichiman Group's volcanic rock of lower carboniferous series.Suwuluke VMS-type copper ore deposit,is hosted in Wuluat Group(C1w) intermediate-basic volcanic rock.Total 8 ore bodies,including 3 main orebodies were discovered.In this paper,authors discussed the genesis of mineral deposit and metallogenic model of Suwuluke copper ore deposit on the basis of characteristics of orebodies,composition of ore,ore structure,alteration,source of ore-forming materials.
