Abstract:Nanshu gold deposit is located in the southern section of Zhaoping fault zone, which is a famous gold mineralization belt in northwest Jiaodong area. This gold deposit is adjacent to Xiazhuang and Shanhou gold deposit in the south and north area. The fault with the trend of NW and Zhaoping fault zone will meet in the north part with very superior metallogenic conditions. In recent years, new progress of gold exploration in this area has been made by Qingdao geoengineering exploration institute. A gold ore body with stable attitude has been found in the deep part. The largest depth of the ore is 700m, and the accumulated reserves of gold deposits has been up to a medium size. The scale of ore body is not controlled in strike and tendency, and it is expected to be a large reserve scale deposit with further exploration. In this paper, geological characteristics of Nanshu gold deposit has been introduced in detail, occurrence and mineralization enrichment rule have been summarized, and metallogenic prospect has been analyzed. It will provide some references for the exploration and research in the southern section of Zhaoping fault zone.
