Abstract

Regional tectonics can provide excellent transport channels and precipitation sites for mineralized hydrothermal fluid. Studying the spatial relationship and distribution trends of regional tectonics and metal mineralization has theoretical and practical significance for revealing regional mineralization regularities and guiding mineral exploration. This study considers the Nenjiang-Heihe metallogenic belt, through the fractal box dimension method and Fry analysis, to explore the spatial distribution characteristics and patterns of tectonics. The results were as follows. (1) NE and NW directions are the main tectonic directions in the study area, with high-density areas concentrated in the central-eastern and central-western regions, demonstrating an overall ring-like distribution pattern. (2) Fractal dimensions of the linear structures of the NE and NW directions and the entire study area are 1.543, 1.493, and 1.622, respectively, with a strong coupling relationship between the lineament fractal high-value area and rhombic-grid spatial distribution of known deposits. (3) Gold mineralization shows the NEE and NWW directions as two main mineralization trends; the intersection area is the gold-potential area. The main trend direction of the Cu-Mo metallogenic trend belt is the NNW direction; the intersection area with the NEE direction gold metallogenic trend belt is the Au-Cu-Mo potential mineralization area.
