Abstract The tracing of sulfur isotope is one of the significant methods in hydrothermal metallogenesis research for its broad existence in the hydrothermal metallogenesis with obvious fractionation. The application of sulfur isotope tracing involves the physical and chemical conditions, origin of ore-forming minerals, denudating degree of orebody, ore enriching position and genesis types of deposits. In the application, the geology of the hydrothermal deposit should be well understand to distinguish metallogenic epochs and judge the isotopic fractional equilibrium state, combined with the Ohmoto mode to study the factors possibly affecting hydrothermal fluid system.
