In order to explore the prospecting potential of non-ferrous and rare metal minerals in the Shangkelan area of Xinjiang,a 1∶50 000 stream sediment measurement work was carried out in the area.Based on the geochemical properties and combination characteristics of elements,cluster analysis and other methods were used to compare and analyze single el-ement anomalies in the survey area.A total of 5 key anomaly areas were delineated,and their anomaly characteristics were explained and evaluated,providing a basis for the next step of mineral exploration work.
