Abstract: In recent years,the location prediction for hidden orebody has caught a worldwide attention.Based upon the analysis to the present situation of metallic deposit exploration,the discussion in this paper focuses on present researching state and key problems of the location prediction for hidden orebody. Some new solutions to the key problems are suggested theoratically and methodically,such as collating and stipulating the emplacement mechanism and regulation of orebody,extracting and applying comprehensive prediction of information,and establishing high-precise locating prediction model and combined forecasting method systems of hidden orebody.
