As one of the important antimony ore field in China, a mass antimony deposits (points) are found in the research area. At present, with the antimony resources of near surface layer being exploited, the previous work has not made any new progress in the search and exploration of the middle and deep parts, so it’s urgent to find a set of fast and effective methods, and to conduct an in-depth study on the model and prediction of the mineral search in this area, in order to expand the resources and the results of mineral search. This paper takes the Jinyin Mountain antimony polymetallic deposit as the research object. We used the short-wave infrared spectroscopy (SWIR) technique to scan the cores of drill holes ZK3101 and ZK2701 of Jinyin Mountain antimony deposit to determine the types, combinations and spectral parameters of alteration minerals of Jinyin Mountain antimony deposit, and to classify the alteration mineral zones and analyze the relationship between mineralization and alteration mineral combinations. By calculating the characteristic parameters of Al-OH spectra of sericite group minerals, it was found that the sericite crystallinity (IC value) and Al-OH 2200 nm characteristic peak absorption peak value (Pos2200) in the mineralized area showed low value anomalies (IC <2, Pos200 <2205 nm), which can be used as an effective indicator of mineralization. The author reckon that short-wave infrared spectroscopy can be used to quickly identify antimony and gold ore bodies, effectively guide mineral exploration, reduce the cost of mineral search, improve the efficiency of exploration, and achieve a breakthrough in mineral search.
