Abstract A number of lithogeochemical surveys indicate the involvement of organic hydrocarbon gas during the lead-zinc ore mineralization in Baifutang region, with the obvious presence of hydrocarbon gas anomalies over the ore bodies. To determine the target region for mineralization and perform metallogenic prognosis for the surrounding areas of the ore bodies, the authors used organic hydrocarbon gas method and comprehensive geochemical method for metallogenic prognosis of lead-zinc ores in Baifutang region. The target area for mineralization in Baifutang region was delineated based on data analysis, which agrees well with hydrocarbon gas halos detected by traditional geochemical methods. This method can make up the shortage of traditional geochemical methods and is of great importance for deep ore prospecting using organic hydrocarbon gas survey in this region.
