桂西隆林-西林锑金矿集区成矿控制因素探讨
Discussion on the ore-controlling factors in the Longlin-Xilin Sb-Au mining district of western Guangxi,South China
摘要
Abstract
[Objective]Sb deposits are characterized by simple mineral assemblage.The ore-forming ages,sources of ore-forming materials,and genesis of Sb deposits are controversial owing to the absence of suitable minerals for analysis.Sb resources in the South China Sb metallogenic region account for over 83%of the national total,with the Dian-Qian-Gui Sb belt in the southwest being an significant component of this region.[Methods]Taking the Longlin-Xilin Sb-Au mining district of western Guixi in the central part of the Dian-Qian-Gui Sb belt as an example,this paper systematically summarizes the ore-bearing strata,lithology of ore-bearing wall rocks,ore-bearing structures,and the coexistence relationship of Au and Sb deposits in 86 ore deposits(points)in the area.Combined with the geological characteristics of three typical deposits(Maxiong,Longtan,and Mahao)and the spatiotemporal distribution of Jurassic felsic intrusions,the inherent connection between Sb mineralization and clastic rocks and felsic intrusions was explored.[Results](1)Statistics and field works show that the most favorable ore-bearing stratum in the Longlin-Xilin mining district is the Lower Devonian Yujian Formation(D1y),followed by the Lower Triassic Luolou Formation(T1Ll)and the Middle Triassic Banna Formation(T2b).The lithologies most conducive to mineralization are carbonaceous shale,pyrite-rich sandstone,and siltstone.The Sb content in these strata or lithologies is tens or even hundreds of times higher than the crustal abundance,which has the potential for Sb mineralization.(2)Within the NWW-SEE trending Nongsang-Shijiazhai fault zone in the Longlin area,the middle and late Jurassic felsic intrusions,which have consistent spatiotemporal occurrences with Sb and Au deposits,can directly contribute to antimony mineralization(as sources of Sb and S)and indirectly influence it(as a heat source),both favoring the formation of antimony deposits.(3)Statistical results show that Sb,Au,and Sb-Au deposits account for 48%,46%,and 6%in the Longlin-Xilin district,respectively.This suggests that the ore-forming fluids for Sb and Au in the study area may originate from different sources.We also can not rule out the possibility that Sb and Au deposits derive from the same fluid.In the latter case,the precipitation of stibnite consumes H2S in the ore-forming fluid,destabilizing the Au complex in the solution and resulting in localized Au precipitation.This competition between Sb and Au in the fluid for H2S leads to a negative correlation in the grades of Sb and Au in coexisting deposits.(4)The study area experienced NS-striking compression in the Indosinian period,followed by the NW-SE shortening in the middle-late Jurassic.The intersection of NWW-SEE and NE-SW faults is the favorable ore-bearing space.The NWW-SEE faults displayed strike-slip movement in response to the NW-SE shortening,whereas the NE-SW faults exhibited transpression.Consequently,the NE-SW faults are less conducive to Sb mineralization compared to the NWW-SEE faults.The distribution direction of the NWW-SEE Douhuang-Xilin fault aligns with the axial direction of the main folds in the area,with most fault planes trending northward,displaying horizontal scratches,silicification,and extensional characteristics.The intersection of the Dohuang-Xilin fault and the NE-SW fracture exhibits significant Sb anomalies.[Conclusion]Based on the above studies,the promising areas we propose for Sb prospecting in Longlin-Xilin mining district are(1)Black shale and pyrite-rich siltstones of the Yujiang Formation in the core of the Xinzhou anticline as the key strata;(2)The periphery of the concealed intrusions within the NWW-SEE Nongsang-Shijaizhai fault(Longlin County)and the intersection area of the NWW-SEE Douhuang-Xilin fault and the NE-SW fault as the favorable areas.[Significance]The findings provide new insights into the genesis and metallogenic regularities of Sb-Au deposits in the study area,enriching the theoretical understanding of Au mineralization processes.关键词
