Abstract:In order to study the law of element migration and its relationship with mineralization in the hydrothermal alteration process of Dadengge gold polymetallic deposit in Jiaodong area, the rock geochemical analysis of orebearing surrounding rocks and orebodies with different degrees of alteration have been analyzed in this paper. The element migration mass balance calculation method (Isocon) is used to calculate the mass balance with Al2O3 as an inactive component. It is showed that sericite alteration mainly developed from the distant surrounding rock to the near ore surrounding rock. Mg, Na, Ti, P, Ca, Zn, Ni, Pb, Be, Sr, Th, U, Zr, Li, V, Nb, Ga, Ta, Sc, Hf, REE (except La, Ce, Pr) and other elements migrated in, while Si, K, Cu, Cr, Co and other elements moved out.The average content of Fe, Mn, Rb is basically unchanged. Pyrite sericite alteration is mainly developed from near ore surrounding rock to the ore body. Fe, Na, Mn, Ti, Mg, Cu, Zn, Sr, V, Sc, Zr, Co, REE and other elements moved in, while K, Ni, Pb, Be, Li, Rb, Cs, Th, U, Cr, Nb, Ta and other elements migrated out. The average content of Si, Al, P, Ca, Ga, Hf and other elements is basically unchanged. Oreforming elements, such as Cu and Zn are activated into the oreforming fluidf during sericitization and precipitated in the process of pyrite sericitization to form pyrite, chalcopyrite and sphalerite. Affected by the subduction and retreat of the ancient Pacific plate, largescale magmatic activity and strong crustal uplift occurred in Jiaodong area in Mesozoic. The thermal uplift extensional structure provided favorable conditions for largescale mineralization in this area. During the alteration of surrounding rock, Au may migrate in the form of [Au(HS)2 ]complexes. Accomapnying with continuous evolution of the mineralizing fluid during hydrothermal alteration, the oxygen escape degree decreases, the system is in a reduced environment, and a large number of sulfides related to gold mineralization (pyrite, chalcopyrite, sphalerite, etc.) are accompanied by gold precipitation of rich integrated ore.
