Features: This book is a collective research achievement of the participating research institutes of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in the national "Eight-Five" key research project, "Comprehensive Research on Accelerating the Identification of Large-scale Mineral Resource Bases of Precious and Non-ferrous Metals in Xinjiang" (National "305" Project). It mainly includes the chemical composition of the crust in northern Xinjiang, the isotopic geochemical characteristics, evolution, and isotopic chronology of the pre-Cambrian basement, large-scale deformation structures, and the formation and evolution of volcanic-sedimentary basins, magmatic processes, Paleozoic volcanic rocks and mineralization, the application of remote sensing technology in the search for large and ultra-large ore deposits, research on target areas for large and ultra-large ore deposits, the metallogenic regularities and exploration directions of gold deposits, and a comparative evaluation of the metallogenic background conditions and prospects for ultra-large ore deposits in northern Xinjiang and adjacent regions. This book can serve as a reference for scientific researchers, educators, and geological exploration technicians engaged in earth science.
