The purpose of this study is to identify the enriched zones of Cu, Mo and Re in Nowchun Mo-Cu porphyry deposit (SE Iran) based on subsurface data and using of concentration–volume (C–V) fractal model. The C-V model illustrates four and five geochemical zones based on Mo and Cu distributions respectively and there are three geochemical populations for Re. The main mineralization for Mo, Cu and R...

Two water treatment sludges (WTS-A, WTS-B), two red muds (RM), and red gypsum (RG), all rich in iron oxy-hydroxides, were added to a soil highly polluted with As and Cu at 2% (w/w) to reduce metal bioavailability. Because the amendments increased soil pH to approximately 6, a lime treatment to the same pH and an unamended treatment were included for comparison. All the amendments had significan...

Structural analysis of remotely sensed data provides a method of assessing the structural significance of regional metallogenesis in the Dehaj area as the northwestern part of the Kerman porphyry Cu belt. This belt is consisted of dominant Eocene volcanics and the Dehaj type subvolcanic intrusives. In the study area, geologically, Cu-mineralization is hosted by the Kuh-e-Panj type subvolcanic i...

The study area is located in Jabal-Barez Ranges, southeastern part of Kerman Copper Belt (KCB), where the porphyry copper mineralization such as Kerver occurs. This article deals with the enhancement of hydrothermal alteration minerals for exploration of porphyry Cu mineralization, and differentiates intense hydrothermal alteration zones from those with low intensity. Shortwave Infrared (SWIR) ...

singularity based on fractal and multifractal is a technique for detection of depletion and enrichment for geochemical exploration, while the index of vertical geochemical zonality (vz) of pb.zn/cu.ag is a practical method for exploration of blind porphyry copper mineralization. in this study, these methods are combined for recognition, delineation, and enrichment of vz in jebal- barez in the s...

The Casino Cu–Au–Mo deposit is one of the largest and highest-grade porphyries its kind in Canada, residing an unglaciated region west-central Yukon. A batch 22 stream water samples eight groundwater were collected proximal to for purpose identifying most diagnostic trace element isotopic pathfinders associated with hydrothermal mineralization, as well establishing natural hydrogeochemical base...

The potassium silicate (K-silicate) alteration zone is the main ore contributor in porphyry copper deposits worldwide. Knowledge of element behaviors and mineralization processes essential for an improved understanding mineralization, but they are still not well understood. In this study, we reacted synthetic Cl-rich fluids, containing K, Na, Cu, Mo, Zn, etc., with andesite a complex experiment...

Abstract Pabellón de Pica, Tarapaca, Chile, is a former guano mine exploited in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Guano direct contact with Cu sulfide mineralization leading to formation of minerals highly unusual chemical composition, especially Cu‐organic complexes nitrogen‐bearing phases. In this work, we report results Raman spectroscopic investigation several unique Cu‐bearing that a...
