The ore-controlling faults in the Jiudian gold field could be classified into three types: fluid transporting; fluid dispatching and fluid precipitating. The fluid precipitating faults are usually small and low-order ones, and could be fatherly classified into three types based on their orientation: NE-, NNE-and NW oriented, and they are of quite different features. The Jiudian gold field can be divided into three sectors based on the distance from the major fault zone-The Zhaoping fault zone. The present paper mainly deals with the features of these differently oriented ore-controlling faults and of sectors and presents a tentative structural model for them.展开更多
