Abstract

To achieve new discovery and development of geological prospecting in Xinjiang, by studying the methods and the processes of Xinjiang's many gold and copper metal deposits, it's considereded that the best effect of prospecting method is mixing 3 basic method of geology, geochemistry and geophysics. The prospecting models are outlined as follows: based on the background analysis of regional geological structure, geochemistry and geophysics, determining the profit mineralization region, taking 1∶50 heavy magnetic measurement, 1∶200 000 and 1∶50 000 geological mapping and geochemical covering. Based on the discovery of heavy magnetic anomalies, target ore elements and composite anomalies, determining the deposit target and anomalies sources.Choosing different large scale mapping of geology, geochemistry and geophysics, doing trough exploring and drilling to the determined ore bodies so as to find the valuable industry ore bodies for different ore species and genetic types. During the whole prospecting processes, especially for the endogenetic deposits, to make structure analysis and prospecting evidence analysis is the key for the prospecting.
