Abstract
South western Tianshan mountains is locaed between Tarimplate and Yili-Yisaihe plate.It underwent splittig and stylolitization of the southern ocean in Proterozoic era,early Paleozoic era and late Paleozoic era and frequent structure type transformation of palaeo-continental edge and sedimentary basin. Tectonic deformation is complex during collision period and afterit. Magmatism and metamorp hism are violent. And it is one of the most complex geological structure in Tianshan orogenic belt. Mineral resource formed in long geological evolution period is rich in South western Tianshan.Especially,South western Tianshan in central Asia has become a famous prospective a rea for its Au,Cu,Ag,Sn,Hg and non-metallic oredeposit. Based on syntheticly studying mineral resource in Tianshan district and correlation our country and neighbours,together with scientific dividing geotectonic units, the autho revaluated mineral resource in Southern Tianshan,China.
