With the increasing demand for mineral resources, the exploration work needs to be strengthened, and the factors affecting the layout of exploration projects need to be further studied. In this paper, the bauxite deposits in the Luoyang Yellow River Basin, Western Henan, are the research objects. According to the geological background and mining characteristics, the influence of tectonism on bauxite mineralization and exploration is comprehensively analyzed. The comprehensive exploration methods (such as geology analysis, drilling engineering, geophysical prospecting, and testing) are used to evaluate the metallogenic prospect of the study area. Through field practice, good prospecting results have been achieved.
