Abstract: It is presented that copper ore resources in China couldn't meet the needs of development of national economy though Copper itself was an important type of metal materials.Based on this,collecting geological material data is vital for strengthening exploration work on copper ore resources further for providing service for ore deposits research.The intention of this paper is to determine ore deposit collection list of National Physical Geological Database,by proposing 37 items of copper ore deposits list which were fit in the current collection system of National Physical Geological Data Database,according to characteristic of ore resources,metallogenic background and metallogenic type.The research suggested that collecting typical geological material data of cooper deposits selectively was not only revealed metallogenic characteristics of China's Copper ore better,and also led to the reflections of the level of exploration and the capabilities of scientific research on cooper deposits in China.Moreover,this fruitful work provided vast of service for geological and mineral undertakings.
