Abstract:The Tianqiao Pb—Zn ore deposit, Hezhang County, is located in the southwest of the Yangtze craton, the center of the Northwestern Guizhou Pb—Zn metallogenic province, and is a representative of the Pb—Zn ore deposits in this area, where more than 96 ore (deposits) spots have been found. There are three mainly ore bodies in this deposit, whose Pb+Zn reserves are more than 0.2 Mt. This paper analyzes the sulfur and lead isotopic compositions and REE contents of these orebodies. The data show that the ore minerals in these orebodies are enriched in heavy sulfur, with δ34SV-CDT values concentrated between 8.4 ‰ and 14.4‰, and they have the feature of δ34Spy>δ34Ssp>δ34Sga, which indicate the sulfur isotope in oreforming fluids has attained equilibrium. The δ34SV-CDT values of the deposits are similar to that of the sulfates from carbonate strata of different ages in the orefield (15‰), which suggests that the sulfur in the oreforming fluids should be derived from the thermochemical sulfate reduction of sulfates from the sedimentary strata. The n(206Pb)/n(204Pb), n(207Pb)/n(204Pb) and n(208Pb)/n(204Pb) values of the minerals are range from 18481 to 18544(average 18516), from 15.708 to 15.763(average 15728) and from 38.875 to 39.057(average 38.945), respectively, which mean the Pb isotope ratios are normal and similar to that of the host carbonate rocks of different ages strata, indicating that these rocks may provided metals together to the oreforming metals. All samples have the low contents of ΣREE (<3×10-6), and negative Eu anomaly(0.13~0.88). On the chondritenormalized REE patterns, the characteristic of sulfides are accord with the patterns of ores, altered dolostone rock, strata and the pyrite form C1d(the Datang Fm.), which indicate that the oreforming fluids maybe come from polycomponenet system, the different chronostratigraphic units maybe make an important contribution together, this accord with the S and Pb isotopes' result, that is the oreforming fluids and oreforming metals are polysources.
