Abstract

The origin of Qian'an BIFs remains unclear, although plenty of efforts have been done in this area (especially on the Precambrian geology, petrology and geochemistry). In the early stage of "Exploring Mines Facing A Resourse Crisis" project, large and high-grade iron ores were discovered. The ma\or and trace element analyses reported in this paper provide new insights on the origin and formation environment of Qian'an BIFs. The average bulk compositions of the BIFs are rich in total Fe and Sio₂, and very low in Al₂o₃ and Tio₂ contents, indicating that a minor terrigenous component input. Their PASS-normalized REE patterns show strongly enriched HREE and positive anomalies of La, Eu and Y. All of the geochemistry fingerprints, in combination with Co/Zn, Ni/Zn, Y/Ho (> 44), La/La^* and La_N/Yb_N (< 1) ratios, strongly suggest a combined origin of hydrothermal water and marine for Qian'an BIFs > consistent with BIFs otherwhere. There are no distinct differences between High-Grade and normal ores, which have apparently similar original sedimentary belts, in ma\or and trace element content, PASS-normalized REE pattern and Fe-bearing mineral assemblage (mainly magnetite), demonstrating that they might have the same origin. It is suggested that the high-grade ores were probably formed at locally Fe-rich environment during volcanic-sedimentary activity.
