Study on Gold Mineralization Mechanism Based on Transcrust Strike-slip Fault Structural System in Jiaoxi Gold Concentrating Area——Evidence from Deep Reflection Seismic Exploration
The crustal structure is an important foundation for understanding the oreforming system and conducting deep ore exploration and prediction. It is also the gold key to correctly understanding the mechanism of large scale, short term and high intensity gold mineralization in the northwest Jiaozhou area during the Mesozoic era. In order to accurately grasp the deep structure of the gold mineralization system in the northwest of Jiaodong area, massive deep reflection seismic, magnetotelluric and gravity profile engineering, as well as a series of 2200~3200m deep drilling projects have been carried out in the northwest of Jiaodong area. Deep exploration profiles spanning the three main mineralization zones of Sanshandao—Jiaojia—Zhaoping in the northwest of Jiaodong area have been obtained. Deep geological structures in the northwest of Jiaodong have been accurately revealed. Sanshandao fault zone intersects with Jiaojia fault zone in a reverse "y" shape in the deep part, and large scale transcrustral strike-slip faults and Moho surface fractures caused by plate subduction and compression have been discovered. A massive gold genesis model based on transcrust strike-slip fault structural system has been established. This work is of great significance for further deepening the understanding of the mechanism and oreforming model of massive gold mineralization in the northwest Jiaodong gold mining area, and enriching and improving the oreforming theory of Jiaodong gold deposits.
