Geological characteristics and genesis discussion of Buchuk gold deposit in Kyrgyzstan
Buchuk gold deposit is located in the middle of Kyrgyzstan,where the North Tianshan Mountains and the Middle Tianshan Mountains of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt connect.The orebodies are controlled by NWW-NEE trending ductile-brittle shear zone.Based on a comprehensive analysis of the ore-forming geological background,geological characteristics,ore features and wall rock alteration of the Buchuk deposit,the genesis of the deposit is preliminarily determined as a ductile shear zone type gold deposit,with great prospecting potential in its deep and peripheral parts,and the prospecting criteria for this type of gold deposit in this area are put forward.
