| Abstract: | The Huachanggou gold deposit is located in the south part of the Mian-Lue suture zone in the Qinling orogenic belt. Rare earth element (REE) concentrations determined by ICP-MS are shown to characterize the ore samples and their wall rocks in three ore zones in order to reveal the origin of ore-forming materials and fluid. In AuI, REE chondrite normalized patterns of ore are similar to those of ore-controlling spilite; the ore-forming materials originated from deep magma, and magmatic activity offered main hydrothermal source for gold mineralization. The REE characteristics of AuII and AuIII are similar, and most of the ore samples are similar with the wall rocks. The ore-forming fluids of AuII and AuIII were metamorphic hydrothermal fluids which had extracted ore-forming materials part from the wall rocks, and part from the spilite in AuI. |
