Gold metallogenic zoning and mineralized prospect in Dalat zone

Abstract

Dalat structural zone was had formed in tectonic setting of continental margin arc in late Mesozoic, have given structural and metallogenic zoning. In this Dalat structural zone, gold is one of the few endogenous minerals is significant mineralization in the study and search - exploration. Endogenic gold distribution in Dalat zone are controlled by main factors such as: structure – locally tectonics (structural fold, brittle fault, structure of dome top of granitoid intrusions, tectonic setting), intrusion (related to gold mineralization), stratigraphy-lithology (environmental containments: volcanic, igneous, terrigenous sedimentary rocks, dykes). Based on analysis of factors of ore control, 138 gold mineral deposits, mineral occurrences and mineralized occurrences, and research several characteristic gold mineral doposits, and mineral occurrences, conducting gold metallogenic zoning, and evaluating the potential of these gold ore regions. These results mean a lot to innovated to next gold prospecting - mineral exploration.
