Comprehensive Application of Geochemical Prospecting and Remote Sensing Information in Prospecting Prediction of the Southern of Bogda, Xinjiang

In spite of complicated lithological conditions and harsh natural environment, the south edge of the Bogda terrain is fairly good geological background abundant in small deposits and occurrences. Geological prospecting with traditional methods is difficult and infeasible in this area. Based on a comprehensive study of mineralization geological conditions, and through an integral analysis of geochemical prospecting and remote sensing information, it is found that geochemical anomalies are mainly located in tectonic and magmatic intrusive contact zone nearby. Metallogenic prediction constituency conducted by GIS delinated five prospecting targets with metallogenic geological anomalies and determined the main minerals of each target area. The research provides prospecting basis and direction for further geological exploration in this area.
