the late eocene-early oligocene sarnowsar granitic rocks and many dacitic to rhyolitic dykesintruded in metamorphosed and metasomatized shale, sandstone, calcite and dolomite marbles andvolcaniclastic and pyroclastic rocks. as a result several million tons of iron ores formed within carbonaterocks in the sangan area. the sarnowsar granitic rocks are mainly granite to granodiorite, metaluminous,...

the northwestern part of the kerman cenozoic magmatic arc (kcma) contains many areas with porphyry copper mineralization. in this research, we used the advanced space-borne thermal emission and reflection radiometer (aster) and enhanced thematic mapper plus (etm+) images of this region to map the distribution of hydrothermally altered rocks, based on their mineral assemblages. the spectral meas...

This paper describes native gold in ore-bearing breccias with realgar-orpiment cement from the Vorontsovskoe deposit (Northern Urals, Russia). Particular attention is paid to morphological features of and its relation other minerals. The latter include both common (orpiment, barite, pyrite, prehnite, realgar) rare species (Tl Hg sulfosalts, such as boscardinite, dalnegroite, écrinsite, gillulyi...

the uniaxial compressive strength (ucs) of intact rocks is an important geotechnical parameter required for designing geotechnical and mining engineering projects. obtaining accurate estimates of the rock mass ucs parameter throughout a 3d geological model of the deposit is vital for determining optimum rock slope stability, designing new exploratory and blast boreholes, mine planning, optimizi...

this study deals with the 3d recovering of magnetic susceptibility model by incorporating the sparsity-based constraints in the inversion algorithm. for this purpose, the area under prospect was divided into a large number of rectangular prisms in a mesh with unknown susceptibilities. tikhonov cost functions with two sparsity functions were used to recover the smooth parts as well as the sharp ...

introduction the senj deposit has significant potential for different types of mineralization, particularly porphyry-like cu deposits, associated with subduction-related eocene–oligocene calc-alkaline porphyritic volcano-plutonic rocks. the study of fluid inclusions in hydrothermal ore deposits aims to identify and characterize the pressure, temperature, volume and fluid composition, (ptx) cond...

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...

The trace element composition of detrital magnetite grains recovered from six local streams around the Casino high-grade porphyry Cu-Au-Mo deposit, west-central Yukon, is compared with igneous and magmatic-hydrothermal mineralized unmineralized host rocks at deposit. Linear discriminant analysis 12 elements (Mg, Al, Ti, V, Mn, Co, Cr, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ga Ge) plots Ti versus Ni/Cr are used to discrim...
