Geological structures have a close dynamic coupling relationship with regional mineralization under the control of tectonic stress fields and tectonic movements. Different kinds of structures, such as faults, folds, ductile shear zones, and crust-mantle coupling structures, exert control of mineralization in different ways. The distribution of mineral resources is controlled by tectonic systems at multiple levels. The organic combination of tectonic systems with mineralization systems brings on the building of mineralizing tectonic systems (MTSs). Globally several mineralizing tectonic systems have been recognized, including the Circum-Pacific MTS, the Tethys-Himalaya MTS, the Paleo-Asia MTS, the Oceanic Ridge-Continental Rift MTS, and craton MTSs. The building of mineralizing tectonic systems will prove to be important for study of regional mineralization and ore-field structural geology.
