This paper discusses geological ‐ geophysical ‐ geochemical models of such typical deposits as the Tieshan ‐ type Fe‐Cu deposit, the Tonglushan ‐ type Cu ‐ Fe deposit, the Yehuaxiang ‐ type Cu deposit, the Jiguanzui‐type Cu ‐ Au deposit, and the Tongshankou ‐ type Cu(Mo) deposit. The models were established based on practical data of the polymetallic deposits dominated by copper ore in southeastern Hubei. These models, which are graphically illustrated in the paper, systematically summarize the metallogenic geological conditions and the geophysical‐geochemical characteristics of copper deposits in this area. The models are of practical significance for studying copper deposits, predicting mineral resources, choosing exploration methods, and searching for ore deposits based on existing ones in the study area.
