Abstract:As one of strategic mineral resources, molybdenum is very important for people. There are many kinds of molybdenum deposits in China. They can be classified into endogenic deposits and exogenic deposits, and porphyry type deposit is the most important molybdnum deposit. Molybdenum deposits have the characteristics of typical regional zoning, which have close relation with dynamics background of molybdenum deposits. In the next ore prospecting, deep prospecting and sorrounding prospecting should be strengthened and combined with tradional ore prospecting, oreforming potentiality of endogenic deposits, especially porphyry molybdenum deposits should be paid more attention. Thus, new breakthrough of ore prospecting can be realized.
