The effect of geoelectrochemicai method in the prospecting for concealed lead-zinc-silver and polymetallic deposits: a case study of the Tolgoi ore deposit in Abag Banner of Inner Mongolia

The application of the geoelectrochemical method to prospecting for concealed lead-zinc-silver polymetallic ore deposits in the Toloi ore district within Abag Banner of Inner Mongolia has proved the effectiveness of this method in this area.Quite a few anomalies of such elements as Pb,Zn and Ag were delineated.An integration of various anomalies and the results of previous work shows that there exists a certain degree of potential in search for concealed lead-zinc-silver polymetallic deposits in this area.Four integrated anomaly districts,i.e.,I,II,III and IV,were delineated,which were divided into three types of targets.These results point out the direction of ore-prospecting work in this area.
