Abstract

The Qulong porphyry copper (molybdenum) deposit is located in the eastern sector of Gangdese porphyry copper belt, having great potentialities for ore prospecting. By rock geochemical analyses in the paper, the ore-bearing porphyries in the deposit have been proved as peraluminous high-K cale-alkaline series rocks and showing Adakite magmatic affinity with particularity. And it could be preliminarily inferred that the ore-bearing porphyries of Qulong and other typical porphyry deposits in Gendese belong to the Adakite II rocks. The post-collisional crustal extension should its main structural setting. All of these would be helpful to further study of the metallogenic environment and ore prospecting.
