Abstract

East Tianshan Mountains cross Kazakhstan plate and Tarim plate;it is the most important non-ferrous metals,precious metals and ferrous metal ores of Xinjiang. It has gone through the basement before Sinian formed → Sinian-Devonian formation and vanishment of ancient Asian Ocean →Carboniferous →the Early Permian after the collision orogeny → Late Permian has made the land within the mountain stages. The main mineralization is the early Late Paleozoic (Devonian-Permian),mineralization complex and variety.The north formed island arc volcanic and porphyry-type copper,molybdenum,gold;the middle formed Tensile volcanic type and skarn-type of gold,copper,nickel,silver;the middle south part formed Layer control-hydrothermal type of lead,zinc,silver which transformed in Precambrian crystalline basement. Kuruketage and northern areas in the north of East Tianshan Mountains formed Tensile copper,nickel,gold. Through the study,mineral resources of East Tianshan especially copper,nickel molybdenum have great potential,selected 28 ore prospecting targets. This thesis describes the Metallogenic characteristics of east Tianshan Mountains and the distribution of copper and gold deposit
