Abstract

325 Chinese copper deposits have been analyzed statistically to reveal their geological characteristics such as sizes, grades, deposit types and mineralization epochs. 10 copper metallogenic districts are listed up on the basis of specific densities of deposit numbers and copper reserves. The analyses also indicate that each district is characterized by one or two deposit types, and by one mineralization epoch. The most important deposit types are porphyry, VMS and vein. Porphyry and VMS deposits are large in size, and VMS and vein deposits are high in grade.
