Abstract
The Dongzhongla Pb-Zn deposit, a newly-discovered medium-sized deposit, is located in the north margin of the eastern Gangdese, central Lhasa block. Based on the analysis of the ore-forming geological conditions in this deposit, sulfur isotope of this deposit were analyzed, and S isotopic equilibrium temperature of mineral pairs (sphalerite and galena) were calculated. This study has shown that the sulfur isotopic equilibrium temperature of sphalerite and galena in Dongzhongla Pb-Zn deposit ranged from 185℃ to 296℃. It indicated that the equilibrium temperature decreased gradually from the skarn stage to sulfide stage. The equilibrium temperature can be used as the reference of metallogenic temperature for Dongzhongla Pb-Zn deposit. DongzhongLa deposit is the typical type of skarn Lead-zinc deposit. East of the Dongzhongla mining area is the priority exploration area.
