Abstract��

Liuju copper deposit is an important sandstone-type copper deposit in Chuxiong Basin of Yunnna Province. The orebody occurs chiefly in stratiform and stratiform-like structures. The sedimentary environment evolved from mendering river to oxidation-salinization lake in Late Cretaceous��and formed some favorable facies as point bar��crevasse fan and sublacustrine fan. The mineralization took place in diagenetic or buried stages. In early Yuanyongjing stage of Paleocene��while the burial depth of lower Matoushan Formation (main ore-bearing strata) as 928 m��the ore-bearing hydrothermal migrated to favorable facies��and this process may extend to late Yuanyongjing stage (56 Ma)��while the burial depth of main ore-bearing strata as 3 400 m. The reformation period may begun in Eocene��and formed some thin copper veins.
