This article summarized the main metallogenic tectonic settings of the magmatic Cu-Ni (PGE) deposits in China by the regional distribution characteristics， new progresses in exploration， and new research materials. It found out four important metallogenic tectonic settings which were large igneous province， rift on craton margin or intracontinental extensional environment， post-collisional extensional environment on orogenic belt， and active continental margin or island arc. Comparing the findings with other countries， the result showed that China lacks the magmatic sulfide deposits related to greenstone belt and ophiolite belt， but the large scale mineralization in the post-collisional extensional environment on the orogenic belt is quite rare in the world. Therefore， the prospecting direction should fully consider those small mafic-ultramafic intrusions which related to the four types metallogenic tectonic settings mentioned above.
