To comprehensively utilize the valuable geological map, exploration profile, borehole, and geochemical logging data and the knowledge on the formation of the Jinshan Ag-Au deposit for forecasting the exploration targets of concealed ore bodies, three-dimensional Mineral Prospectivity Modeling (MPM) of the deposit has been conducted using the weights-of-evidence (WofE) method. Conditional independence between evidence layers was tested, and the outline results using the prediction-volume (
