近年新疆地矿部门在阿尔泰、西天山和西昆仑等地的铁矿勘查取得了一批重要成果,取得重大突破的矿床类型主要是海相火山岩型和沉积变质型(董连慧等,2011)。其中沉积变质型铁矿主要分布于新疆塔里木盆地周缘及昆仑山的前寒武纪地块区。在西昆仑塔什库尔干地块原布伦阔勒群下部和上部先后发现了一系列沉积变质型(富)磁铁矿床,如赞坎、莫喀尔、吉尔铁克沟、老并、叶里克和喀来子等大中型铁矿,形成规模巨大的沉积变质型磁铁矿带(冯昌荣等,2012)。 In recent years, Xinjiang’s geology and mining department has made a number of important achievements in iron ore exploration in Altai, Western Tianshan and Western Kunlun. The main types of deposits that have made major breakthroughs are marine volcanic rock types and sedimentary metamorphic types (Dong Lianhui et al., 2011). The sedimentary metamorphic iron ore is mainly distributed in the periphery of the Tarim Basin in Xinjiang and the Precambrian block area in the Kunlun Mountains. A series of sedimentary metamorphic (magnetite) deposits have been found in the lower and upper parts of the original Burenchule Group of the Taxkorgan block in western Kunlun, such as Zancang, Mokar, Jierikegou, Changhe, Yelikuk Lazi and other large and medium-sized iron ore to form a huge sedimentary metamorphic magnetite belt (Feng Changrong et al., 2012).
