Abstract

The shuiquan bentonite mining area in chaoyang county, liaoning province is located in the northern margin of the north China block - yanshan middle neoproterozoic rifting belt - western liaoning Mesozoic upper superimposed basin belt - chaoyang Mesozoic superimposed basin-ling system nejinling si-yangshan volcanic rock basin. The bentonite ore bodies occur in the rhytitic breccia tuff of the lanqi formation and are stratified deposits. Based on the study of the known ore bodies, this paper summarizes the prospecting marks, summarizes the prospecting direction, and lays a foundation for the next exploration.
