英文摘要	Indium is a rare and dispersed metallic element. Hitherto, no independent indium deposit has been reported worldwide due to specific geochemical properties of indium. The indium mineralization as the by-product mainly associates with tin-rich hydrothermal systems, including magmatic-hydrothermal and continental volcanic-subvolcanic systems, and relatively tin-depleted submarine volcanic hydrothermal system. The indium mineralization usually formed in the plate boundary, which is closely related to slab subduction and collision, whereas a few sulfide deposits associated with volcanic rocks and sedimentary rocks produced in the post-arc environment and rift environment. The significant development of indium in geologic historical period mainly focuses in the Neogene, Cretaceous, and Devonian, corresponding to main mineralization types of epithermal, skarn, and VMS, respectively. Most magmatic rocks associated with indium mineralization are A-type or S-type granites. There are approximately 15 kinds of independent minerals of indium, including natural indium, roquesite, indite, sakuraiite, and dzhalindite. In addition to forming individual indium minerals, the majority of indium is principally hosted in sphalerite, followed by stannite, stannoidite, chalcopyrite, cassiterite, tetrahedrite, and tennatite. Indium is mainly formed in the high temperature condition, and generally displays multi-stage enrichment. Sphalerite is the most important indium bearing mineral, in which the incorporation mechanism is (Ag, Cu) (+) + In3+ <--> 2Zn(2+). This paper suggests that it is necessary to further strengthen the research on the origin of indium, the physical and chemical conditions of indium precipitation, and the genetical links between indium and the main ore species.
