Mineralogical, Geochemical and Isotopic Study of the Active Tailings Impoundment Carén from the Porphyry Copper Deposit El Teniente, Chile
At the active tailings impoundment Carén (surface 22 km) from the porphyry copper mine El Teniente, Chile, initial steps of primary mineral alteration and geochemical changes after deposition were studied. The tailings contained up to 3 vol% sulfides (mainly pyrite). At five points in the tailings impoundment, water samples up to a depth of 4 m were taken from piezometer. Preliminary data showe...
متن کاملFluid inclusion characteristics and molybdenite Re-Os geochronology of the Qulong porphyry copper-molybdenum deposit, Tibet
The Qulong porphyry copper and molybdenum deposit is located at the southwest margin of the Lhasa Terrane and in the eastern region of the Gangdese magmatic belt. It represents China’s largest porphyry copper system, with ∼2200 million tonnes of ore comprising 0.5 % Cu and 0.03 % Mo. The mineralization is associated with Miocene granodiorite, monzogranite and quartz-diorite units, which intrude...
متن کاملGeochemical behavior of Mo and precious metals during supergene enrichment in the SarCheshmeh porphyry Cu deposit, Iran
Supergene oxidation-leaching and secondary sulfide enrichment in the SarCheshmeh porphyry Cu-Mo deposit generated a supergene profile to depths of 20 to 80 meters with oxide ore reserve about 22 Mt. @1.08% Cu and sulfides ore [email protected]% Cu. Geochemical distribution and behavior of trace metals associated with Cu namely Mo, Au, and Ag in the supergene profile of the SarCheshmeh were po...
متن کاملGeologic Evolution of the Escondida Area, Northern Chile: A Model for Spatial and Temporal Localization of Porphyry Cu Mineralization
A program of geologic mapping and lithogeochemical and geochronological sampling has been carried out over a 745-km area of the Atacama Desert surrounding the porphyry Cu deposits at Escondida, Zaldívar, and Chimborazo (Cordillera de Domeyko, northern Chile). The purpose of this study was to examine the regional tectonic and magmatic setting of this preeminent porphyry Cu district for evidence ...
متن کاملResources classification using fractal modelling in Eastern Kahang Cu-Mo porphyry deposit, Central Iran
Resources/reserves classification is crucial for block model creation utilised in mine planning and feasibility study. Selection of estimation methods is an essential part of mineral exploration and mining activities. In other word, resources classification is an issue for mining companies, investors, financial institutions and authorities, but it remains subject to some confusion. The aim of t...
