摘要
Longquanzhan gold deposit, an important part of gold mineralization belt of Yi-Shu fault zone, is the only altered tectonite-type gold deposit discovered in the area at present. The ore bodies mainly occur at the fracture zone and the footwall metamorphic rocks. Rb-Sr isotopic dating of 10 pyrites separated from the Longquanzhan gold deposit yields an isochron age of 96±2 Ma (MSWD=1.2), which is in good agreement with the late Early Cretaceous to early Late Cretaceous magmatism (106-96 Ma) in adjacent area of Yi-Shu fault zone. Meanwhile, combining with the precise ages of gold deposits in Shandong Province and mineral exploration data, we suggest that late Early Cretaceous gold mineralization may occur in the southeastern margin of North China Craton, and its tectonic setting is related to an extensional setting which resulted in a large-scale asthenosphere upwelling, accompanying decompression and isotherm upwelling, material exchange and mixing between mantle and crust, and finally providing a great amount of ore-forming fluids and materials for gold mineralization. According to the precise age of Longquanzhan gold deposit reported, this discovery is of great significance both in gold deposit origin contrast of both sides and future mineral exploration.
