Abstract: Zhulintang gold depositis occurred in Dongxiang continental volcanic basin of the Mesozoic, its wall_rock is formed by the acid to mid_acid continental volcanic rock.The gold ore_bodiesare strictly controlled by the faulted structural zones.The stage of quartz_pyrite_adularization of the epimagnetic epoch is the main metallogenic stage of the gold deposit.After analysing the geological characteristics of the gold deposit, and discussing the prospecting methods, the prospecting direction of the gold deposit is put forward.
