CONTRAST STUDY ON OCCURRENCES AND EXPLORATION TECHNOLOGIES BETWEEN SHALLOW AND DEEP METALLIC ORE DEPOSITS

The different occurring depths of shallow deposits and the deep deposits result in the disparities of occurrence characteristics. It is necessary to develop new exploration technologies when prospecting at depth. This paper introduces the similarities and differences between shallow and deep metallic ore deposits in their occurrence characteristics, as well as exploration technologies. The exploration theories and technologies used for shallow exploration are important references for deep ore prospecting.
