1. Introduction. Skarn iron deposits constitute one of the important resources of iron-rich ores. The primary mechanism of formation of skarn iron deposits is hydrothermal activity associated with contact metasomatism (Edwards and Atkinson, 1986, Hall et al., 1988).When magma intrudes into carbonate rocks, iron minerals form at the …
2. China s major iron ore types Probably due to large national land area and multi-period orogeny, lots of iron deposits developed in China, and the proven total reserves of iron ores are relatively abundant, but mainly low-grade ores.

Samples of the host rocks and different types of iron ores were collected from drill cores (ZK23-6, ZK23-11 and ZK39-6) from the Macheng deposit, their locations are shown in Fig. 6, Fig. 7. ... Macheng Algoma-type iron formation. In China, BIF deposits are mainly distributed in eastern Hebei Province, northern Shanxi Province, western …
The degree of Nb mineralization shows irregular tendency in various types of ores (Liu et al., 2018, Liu et al., 2020). These Fe-REE-Nb ores with distinct mineral compositions and different types of metasomatism can act as the superb tool to trace the related magmatic and hydrothermal mineralization processes.
Various types of iron ores, dolomite marble, and some gangue rocks were collected from different parts of the ore bodies from west to east for analysis. ... A typical Mesoproterozoic iron formation in North China Craton is Xuanlong type iron ore deposit, which is famous for the stromatolitic and oolitic structures. The deposit mainly ...
The origin of these iron deposits remains uncertain. Several workers have suggested that the Qidashan, Hujiamiaozi and Xidabei deposits are primarily of Algoma-type, and that the protoliths of the ore-bearing layers belong to volcano-sedimentary formation (Ren et al., 2007, Wang, 1986, Wang et al., 1992, Xu and Chen, 1984, Zhai et …
Skarn iron deposits are widespread (Fig. 1) and have been the major source of high-grade iron ores in China, accounting for > 60% of the total high-grade ores of the country. These deposits are mostly clustered in several districts, including the Handan–Xingtai, Laiwu, Jinan, and Linfen districts from the North China Craton, the …

China has a rich reserve of iron ores and hosts most of the major types of iron deposits recognized worldwide. However, among these, the banded iron formation (BIF), skarn, apatite–magnetite, volcanic-hosted, sedimentary hematite and magmatic Ti–Fe–(V) deposits constitute the most economically important types.
On the basis of ore-forming age, host formations, mineral assemblages, and grade of the ores, the BIF-related iron deposits in China are classified into seven types.
In China, the BIF-related iron deposits are the most important type of iron deposits, accounting for approximately 64% of the total identified resources. However, most of them are low-grade iron ores (in China, the low-grade iron ore is defined as 20% ≤ TFe < 50%, and the iron ore with TFe ≥ 50% is defined as high-grade iron ore). The high ...
