Geological model and prospecting significance of Jawurah deposit in Inner Mongolia
Guided by the "trinity" prospecting prediction theory, this paper provides a comprehensive summary of the three core elements of the Jawurah deposit. The findings of the study indicate that the Jawurah deposit represents a typical terrestrial medium-low-temperature magmatic hydrothermal silver-palladium-zinc deposit. The mineralized geological bodies are predominantly composed of Cretaceous diorite porphyry and granitic porphyry, while the principal mineralizing structures are northwest-trending tensional faults. The mineralizing fluids exhibit characteristics of a mixture of magmatic water and atmospheric precipitation. Based on an integrated analysis, a three-dimensional prospecting model of "rock body controlling mineralization, structure guiding mineralization, and alteration indicating mineralization" has been proposed. This model offers robust theoretical support for regional prospecting breakthroughs.
