Geochemical patterns and metallogenic material source of the Naoyangping-Damogou zinc-fluorite deposits in Pingli County, China

The Naoyangping-Damogou Zinc-fluorite deposits in Pingli County, China, are usually associated with limestone and trachyte rocks. The ore bodies are in closed genetic relationship with fault structures. The results of this study show that the source of the ore-forming elements of the Naoyangping-Damogou zinc-fluorite deposits does not have the characteristics of a deep source; it can be found in the infiltration of meteoric waters along the fractures on alkali trachyte and argillite boundary, water-rock interaction and leaching of ore-forming elements in rocks. The ore-forming elements migrated into favorable position by the precipitation. The results of this work can be used as supportive information during additional geological surveys in the study area.
