Abstract: Danaopo PbZn deposit is another ultralarge leadzinc deposit newly discovered in the Huayuan leadzinc ore field in recent years.In order to further determine the oreforming geological conditions of the mining area,the strata,lithofacies,structures,Ore body shape,distribution,and oreretaining space characteristics.Exploration work was carried out in the mine.The geological characteristics and oreretaining capacity of the mine were ascertained in detail through 1∶2 000 special geological mapping,drilling,pit exploration,and sampling tests.The spatial characteristics laid the foundation for the search for the same type of deposit.

Key words: PbZn deposit, geological characteristics, ore bearing bed, ore hosting space, algal pore
