Abstract: The ore-forming geological conditions of eastern Zhejiang volcanic depressions is good,a large number of copper-gold polymetallic deposits are distributed in this area.In order to understand the distribution regularity and geological characteristics of the copper deposits in this area and conduct prospecting prediction of the copper deposits in this area,firstly,the regional geological characteristics and physical,chemical,remote sensing characteristics of Shanmen area,eastern Zhejiang province are analyzed in depth;then,the output condition,geological characteristics,mineralization type and ore-controlling factors of the Shanmen copper deposit that is located in Banling-Huangshiao area in Shanmen area,eastern Zhejiang province are discussed in detail.The reslts show that:①the copper deposit mineralization in this area with certain characteristics of epithermal and porphyry metallogenic series,so,it is unreasonable to adopt the tectonic hydrothermal filling or typical porphyry metallogenic theory to guide the prospecting work in this area,the epithermal type copper polymetallic deposits related to the sub-volcanic rocks should be taken as the main prospecting object;②most of the mineralization happened in the mining area are high mineralizaiton or distal mineralization,the extending area of the mineralization is the main prospecting goal,the phenomenon of porphyry mineralization may be happened in deeper place.Based on the above results,the prospecting pattern of "one whole with five pars"is proposed,that is to say,the detailed prospecting ideas of the five kinds of mineralization types(NW-direction fault fracture zone,secondary volcanic institutions,multi-stages latent volcano-intrusive rocks,alteration zoning characteristics and geophysical-geochemical anomalies),to provide reference for the prospecting work in this area.
