ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT:   The Taonatu area located in the western part of the north margin of the North China Craton in Inner Mongolia has good ore-forming potential. In this paper, a comprehensive prospecting model was applied based on geological, geophysical and geochemical characteristics. By using the 1:50,000 high-precision magnetic survey, we found that the magnetic anomaly is associated with the Agulugou formation and Zenglongchang formation in the Taonatu area, especially with the Agulugou formation. By using the 1:50,000 stream sediment geochemical survey in this area, anomalies of Fe, Zn, Au, Ag, and other polymetallic elements are extracted. Based on the geological study, this paper successfully applied a high-precision magnetic prospecting and stream sediment geochemical survey to explore the mineralization potential in the Taonatu area. It is believed that this area is a potential area for finding polymetallic deposits.
