Sareke glutenite-type copper deposit is located in the Sarekebayi basin, a sub-basin of southwest margin of the Tuoyun Mesozoic hinterland basin in the northwestern part of the Tarim Basin. The Tuoyun Mesozoic hinterland basin may be formed between the Southwest Tianshan Hercynian orogenic belt and the Kuokeshaling Palaeozoic arc-type orogenic belt. Strata exposed in the study area include the Mesoproterozoic Akesu Group Complex, Silurian system, the lower Jurassic Shalitashi group and Kangsu group, the middle Jurassic Yangye group and Taerga group, the upper Jurassic Kuzigongsu group, the lower Cretaceous Kezilesu Formation. The Kuzigongsu group is a set of purple-celadon mingled conglomerates. The ore-bearing strata of the Sareke copper deposit is hosted at the upper part of the Upper Jurassic Kuzigongsu Group (Fang et al.,2014,2015,2016), the main lithology
