Abstract
Recently discovered cobalt is an important mineral species in the eastern Kunlun Orogenic Belt and has shown favorable prospecting prospects, high tenor and large scale reserves. To date, three cobalt deposits have been discovered: that is, Kendekeke and its periphery cobalt-bismuth-gold deposit, Tuolugou cobalt-gold deposit and Dulenggou copper-cobalt deposit. Cobalt has the characteristics of being heat-resistant, wear-resistant, high strength and strong magnetism. Furthermore, its alloy and alloy steel are important additives which are indispensable to aviation, electrical appliances and the chemical industry. There are associated cobalt deposit and independent cobalt deposit in this orogenic belt. What are the ore-controlling characteristics and how about their ore-forming metallogenic dynamic mechanism and geology of mineral deposit? The dissertation briefly discusses these scientific problems.
