Application of Complexity of Element Method in Geochemical Anomaly Studying and Metallogenic Prediction in the Dunbasitao Gold Mine,Qinghe County,Xinjiang

Geochemical anomaly studying is one of the important problems of geochemical exploration and is crucial for effective abnormal.In this paper,the authors make a study on the soil geochemistry measurement data of 1∶10 000 from Dunbasitao gold mine,and calculate the anomaly lower thresholds of elements by content-area fractal model.Then the authors build complexity of the element metrics to draw the complexity of the elements map by assigning each element abnormal points,and make an evaluation of oreprospecting potential for the four high value area of complexity of the elements.According to geological features in combination with complexity of the elements analyzed,two major target areas for further prospecting are selected andⅠore-prospecting area is confirmed mineralization favorable area.Three ore bodies are exposed in west ofⅠore-prospecting area and provide a basis for further prospecting,suggesting that the method is also suitable in metallogenic prediction.
