| Abstract/Notes | Sulfur–metal mass ratios (SMMRs) between sulfur and metal elements (Cu, Pb, Zn, Ag, Fe, etc.) in metal sulfides are fixed in idealized compositions, so they should have a relatively fixed proportion in terms of mass without considering the presence of structural defects such as vacancies or substitution elements. Rock bodies with an SMMR of S far greater than the common metal sulfides may contain additional sulfides of other metals. We studied the Tongshan copper deposit in NE China and calculated the mass transfer of various elements in drill hole ZK611 samples. The data show a S influx of 7160 g/t, a Cu influx of 5469 g/t, and an Fe influx of 8796 g/t in the Cu ore body. Below the Cu ores, the average influx is 18,600 g/t of S, 650 g/t of Cu, and 5360 g/t of Fe, which provides an SMMR far above common mineral sulfide values. Further studies indicated that this rock unit contains fine-grained sphalerite and galenite, and when Zn and Pb are included in the rock SMMR calculations, values closer to the mineral sulfides emerge. These results imply that the coordinating balance relationship of S content with Fe and other ore-forming metals could provide direct information for assessing metallogenic prospects. | ||
