Anticipating the distribution of gold-copper-porphyry-type deposits in volcanic-plutonic belts of Russia’s eastern regions based on results of compiling sheets of the State Geological Map-1000/3
Abstract
Volcanic-plutonic belts in eastern Russia are a natural element of the Pacific folded frame, with which the largest copper-porphyry deposits are associated. Rather large Malmyzh and Peschanka deposits discovered in recent years in the Russian Far East give ground for high assessment of region’s prospects for copper-porphyry mineralization. Based on the analysis of regional and local factors of control of gold-copper-porphyry mineralization in areas of location of these reference deposits, the prospects of volcanic-plutonic belts of Russia’s eastern regions for this type of mineralization are estimated. It is emphasized that, along with the nature of intrinsic magmatism of the volcanic-plutonic belts, the composition and nature of the substrate on which these belts are superimposed are of importance in the distribution of copper-porphyry deposits of various types. Recommendations are given on the organization of exploratory and medium-scale regional works to discover gold-copper-porphyry deposits.
