Abstract: The Gaoligou gold deposit, located in Linjiang City, Jilin Province, is controlled by the S-shaped Huanggoushan structural belt, belonging to fractured zone-altered rock type. The orefield has been explored in shallow level; while the deep level is not controlled yet for the complex forms of orebodies. With a comparative study on the metallogenic conditions, orecontrolling factors and orebody characteristics, this area is considered valuable for further exploration.
