Popis: In this paper, the gold grade series along drifts have been analyzed using two methods, rescaled range analysis and lacunarity analysis which are commonly used in nonlinear systems analysis. The aim of this study is to better understand the ore-forming processes and identify the local mineralized intensity and interactions that influence the spatial structure of gold element grade distribution, in the Dayingezhuang fault-controlled, disseminated-veinlet gold deposit in the Jiaodong gold province, eastern China. The result shows that the efficiency of two methods, in distinguishing between weakly mineralized, moderately mineralized and intensely mineralized of ore-forming area. It is obvious that the two parameters of both Hurst and lacunarity index in the weakly mineralized drifts are distinguished from those in the mineralized drifts, and the lower the index is, the more homogeneously distributed of the elements and the mineral intensity is relatively smaller. The methods used in this paper provide a relatively comprehensive description for local mineral intensity, offering an evidence for the identification of mineralization intensity and providing a guidance for further determination to the extent of deposit concentration and delineation of target mineralization zone.
