史前石器时代,人类已经发现并学会利用可锻的红色自然铜卵石.从那时到现在金属矿的找矿工作一直持续地进行着.后来又发现了铁、铅、锡们其它一些金属,使找矿工作范围不断扩大.古代采矿人员根据他们的原始经验积累了大量的资料作为找矿工作的基础,这些资料多少世纪来逐步现代化,但实质上并没有多大的改变.早就认识到,某些金属通常在一定的区域内的矿脉中伴生,特别是产在褶皱山脉或其侵蚀后的残余体内,初步确立了构造与矿化位置之间的关系.还认识到某种特定的矿床和某种特定的侵入火成岩之间的共生关系.这两个基本发现,在很大程度上仍然构成现在金属矿找矿思想的基础. In prehistoric Stone Age, mankind has discovered and learned to use malleable red natural copper pebbles, and the prospecting work for the metal ores has been ongoing since then. Later, iron, lead, tin and other metals were discovered The scope of prospecting work is constantly expanding.According to their original experience, ancient miners accumulated a great deal of information as the basis for their prospecting work, which has been gradually modernized for centuries but has not changed much in essence.It has long been realized that some These metals are usually associated with veins in certain areas, especially in the fold mountains or their eroded remnants, establishing the initial relationship between tectonics and mineralization, recognizing that a particular deposit and some Species of the symbiotic relationship between intrusive igneous rock.These two basic findings, to a large extent, still form the basis of the present metallogenic prospect.
