Antimony reserves and production in Hunan have great influence both in China and abroad. The major ore deposits are of hydrothermal type, quartz vein type and clastic altered rock type. Hunan Province has good metallogenetic conditions and prospecting potential. Based on assessment of antimony mineral resources potential and situation of development and utilization, the authors delineated 9 metallogenic prospect areas, which included 3 Class A, 2 Class B, and 4 Class C metallogenic prospect areas. The quantity of potential resources was estimated at about 5.31 million tons. The results achieved by the authors will provide scientific basis for the reasonable planning of antimony exploration.
