Abstarct: The Golrou-Ordoni polymextallic deposit is located at 145 km Southwest of Nehbandan and 15 km west of Dehsalm, in the Lut structural zone. Rock units of the area is essentially a combination of Eocene volcanic and pyroclastic rocks (dacite, andesite, basaltic andesite, tuff and lithic tuff). Mineralization occurred in the within the middle-upper Eocene andesite-dacite and dacitic tuff and younger intrusive bodies, as ore veins along the NW-SE faults through five ore stages. Mineralization zones consist of hypogene and parts. Mineralization has occurred in hypogene and supergene. Hypogene minerals include magnetite, chalcopyrite, pyrite, galena and sphalerite, and supergene minerals are mostly iron oxide and hydroxide, malachite, azurite, chalcocite, angelsite and pseudoboleite. The major ore textures of the region include vein-veinlets, open space fillings, banded, disseminated, and replacement. Major alterations include propylitic, argillic, phyllic, and silicification. baxsed on geochemical data, volcanic rocks of the region show enrichment of Th, K, Cs and Rb and low concentrations of Nb and Ti. These volcanic and intrusive rocks are of calc-alkaline nature and are related to continental margin volcanic arc setting. The maximum concentrations of copper, lead, zinc and silver are 1969,1388, 120513 and 43 ppm, respectively. Of course, mextallic zoning in the deposit is visible from deep to the surface, with copper, silver, and lead elements showing the highest enrichment at depth and near-surface arsenic and zinc enrichment. baxsed on fluid inclusion studies on quartz minerals related to the fourth stage of mineralization, homogeneous temperatures and fluid salinity are 80-240 centigrade degree and 2-8 weight percent equivalent to NaCl, respectively. Accordingly, their magma origin can be attributed to the mantle wedge associated with the subduction zone. Considering the basic features of mineralization in the region, including tectonic setting, host rocks, mineralogy, alteration and comparing them with the basic features of epithermal and porphyry type deposits and cordilleran deposits, the Golrou-Ordoni polymextallic ore deposit shows most similarities with the polymextallic vein deposits related to the porphyry systems.
