Application of Discriminant Analysis for Alteration Separation; Sungun Copper Deposit, East Azerbaijan, Iran

The Sungun porphyry copper deposit that intruded Eocene volcano sedimentary and Cretaceous carbonate rocks hosted by a diorite/granodioritic to quartzmonzonitic stock. Copper mineralization is essentially associated more with potassic and less phyllic alteration. Therefore separating these two kinds of alteration is so important. In this paper, by applying the discriminant, it was attempt to se...

Calculation of Mass Transfer and Element Mobility During the Hydrothermal Alteration in the Sungun PORPHYRY Copper Deposit Iran

The Sungun porphyry copper deposit is located in northwestern Iran and is associated with diorite/granodiorite to quartz-monzonite of Miocene age, which intruded Eocene volcanosedimentary and Cretaceous carbonate rocks. Copper mineralization was accompanied by both potassic and phyllic alteration. Three main mineralization related alteration episodes (potassic, transition, and phyllic alteratio...

Delineation of alteration zones based on kriging, artificial neural networks, and concentration–volume fractal modelings in hypogene zone of Miduk porphyry copper deposit, SE Iran

This paper presents a quantitative modeling for delineating alteration zones in the hypogene zone of the Miduk porphyry copper deposit (SE Iran) based on the core drilling data. The main goal of this work was to apply the Ordinary Kriging (OK), Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), and Concentration-Volume (C-V) fractal modelings on Cu grades to separate different alteration zones. Anisotropy was ...

Geostatistical simulation of dyke systems in Sungun porphyry copper deposit, Iran

Post-mineralization activities may cause difficulties in the process of ore modeling in porphyry deposits. Sungun, NW Iran, is one of the porphyry copper deposits, in which dyke intrusions have made ore modeling more complicated than expected. Among different kinds of dykes, two types were chosen and the consequent geostatistical analyses were applied on. In this study, simple directional vario...

Geochemical study of alteration zones around Au-bearing silicic veins at Zailic, East of Ahar, East- Azarbaidjan Province

The Zailic gold-bearing veins are located in the Arasbaran metallogenic zone, east of Ahar, East-Azarbaidjan Province. The most important lithologic units in this area are andesitic and trachy-andesitic tuffs and lavas of Upper Eocene age hosting vein-type gold mineralization. Theses rocks have suffered silicic, argillic, phyllic, and propylitic alterations brought about by hydrothermal fluids....
