     Based on the database of 1285 mineral deposits constituting 22 commodities in 121 countries (areas) from 6 continents in the world, the authors used the linear trend analysis for their reserves to determine the cut-off limited order of reserves. As a result, 36 exceptional superlarge deposits (peak mineral deposits), 95 superlarge deposits and 314 large deposits were selected as new cognition for their quantitative change. The authors projected over 445 large-superlarge deposits on the (1:25 M) global tectonic background map and assigned them to 4 metallogenic domains and 21 metallogenic belts. Global metallogeny of large-superlarge deposits includes unity of endogenic, exogenic metamorphic and epigenetic ore-forming processes in origin; speciality of different metallogenic domains and belts; preferentiality of ore-forming elements of Cu, Au, Fe, Ag, Cr, Mn, Zn, Pb, Sb, Hg to continental margins or plate convergent belts, intra-continental tectono-magmatic complex belts and large ductile shear zones; abnormality of the global oxyatmversion (oxygen-excessing atmospheric event) in Archean-Early Proterozoic, redoxyatmversion (oxygen-lacking atmospheric event) in Proterozoic-Paleozoic, and tectonosphere thermal erosion (great amounts of tectonic magmatic event) in Mesozoic-Cenozoic.
