Abstract
The Masiluo–Zhangjiapingzi area is one of the most important target areas for ore exploration in western Sichuan, which has abundant gold and copper ore deposits. Substantial ore deposits in this area include the Masiluo gold deposit, Zhangjiapingzi gold deposit, Dongjia wuji specular hematite deposit, Gonglikong Cu–Au deposit, and Bazhe Cu–Au–Fe deposit. This study characterized the metallogenic regularity of the Masiluo–Zhangjiapingzi area using observations of the regional geological background and the characteristics of a typical deposit in this area. The ore deposits were found to be controlled by stratigraphy, geological structures, and magma with distinctive zoning characteristics—gold mineralization on the west part, Cu– Au mineralization on the northeastern part, and Fe–Cu–Au mineralization on the southeastern part.
