Abstract: The Baiyinchang mine-field is located in the east of massive sulfide deposits metallogenic province in Qilian Mountain area. The orebody is hosted in early-middle Cambrian assemblage of baschtauite and spilite. According to the study on the metallogenic fluid characteristic from the vein orebody at the footwall of Zheyaoshan deposit, this paper discusses the metallogenic mechanism, the nature and origin of ore-forming fluid. The petrography and microthermometric results of fluid inclusions in ore-bearing quartz show the inclusion types are liquid inclusion, gaseous inclusion, pure gaseous inclusion, CO2-bearing three-phase inclusion and pure CO2 inclusion. Respectively, the homogenization temperature of the first stage inclusions is concentrated between 201~413℃ while the salinity(NaCl) is on 1.43%~13.40%, as of the second stage inclusions is concentrated between 217~428℃ while the salinity (NaCl) is on 1.91%~11.93%. The composition in fluid inclusions indicates that the gases in fluid inclusions are chiefly composed of H2O, and the secondary components are CH4, CO2. The cations inclusions are dominanted by Na+ while the anions by Cl-. The ore-forming system is H2O-NaCl-CO2-CH4 system. The ore-forming fluid from the footwall vein orebody of Zheyaoshan deposit is the mixture of magmatic fluid and the heated sea water, and the ore-forming material derives from mixing of fluids.
