Mineral Characteristics and Genesis of Hongniu Copper Deposit in Yunnan Province
The ore minerals of Hongniu copper polymetallic deposit in Yunnan Province are mainly chalcopyrite,pyrite,pyrrhotite and magnetite of metal sulfide.Through the analysis study on metallogenic geological setting,characteristics of some ore bodies,main mineral characteristics,symbiotic association relationship of metallic minerals,period of mineralizing and mineral formation sequence,the deposit has experienced three stages of mineralization:magmatic mineralization,post-magmatic hydrothermal mineralization and supergene mineralization,and the genetic types of the ore deposit include skarn copper deposit controlled by magmatic activity,medium-low temperature hydrothermal copper deposit controlled by tectonic fracture zone and superficial deposit.
