Stream Sediment Anomalies and Range of Reconnaissance in Luocun Porphyry Mo Deposit,Luanchuan County,Henan Province
Luocun molybdenum mining area in Luanchuan county is located in Luanchuan mineral concentration zone of the East Qinling molybdenum mining belt,on the southern edge of the North China Platform.The paper an-alyzes the geochemical characteristics of 1∶50 000 water system sediments in the mining area,summarizes the distribution and enrichment patterns of elements,delineates single element anomalies and combination anomalies,interprets anomalies,identifies key mineral exploration areas,and points out the direction of mineral exploration.The research results indicate that the outer contact zone of Luocun rock mass is a favorable location for molybdenum mineralization enrichment;the northeast and southwest parts of the mining area have good prospecting potential for lead,silver,and zinc polymetallic deposits;the combination of Au,As,Hg,and Cu anomalies in the central re-gion is relatively good,and anomaly verification should be strengthened to achieve breakthroughs in gold explora-tion.
