Detecting deep mineralization from partial element concentrations in surface and near-surface samples requires detecting the signature of one geochemical process against a background that arises from many other geochemical processes. Since the last glaciation of the Canadian Shield, it is believed that only H+ can have diffused through substantial overburden, and hence that the only available s...

Corals open an exceptional window into many phenomena of geological, geochemical, climatic, and paleontological interest. From the Paleozoic to the present, corals provide some of the finest high-resolution archives of marine conditions. Corals are likewise exceptional for chronometric purposes, and even the terrestrial C timescale has now been calibrated against coral Th/U. Corals also represe...

the gold mineralization in kurdistan province of iran was classified as shear zone gold type by some of the researchers. in the current study, the geochemical samples collected from the secondary environment, stream sediments, at the sw of saqquez area were used to investigate the geochemical characteristics of the gold mineralized zones in this environment. the multi-variant statistical analys...

Detection of deep and hidden mineralization using the surface geochemical data is a challenging subject in the mineral exploration. In this work, a novel scenario based on the spectrum–area fractal analysis (SAFA) and the principal component analysis (PCA) has been applied to distinguish and delineate the blind and deep Mo anomaly in the Dalli Cu–Au porphyry mineralization area. The Dalli miner...

In this research work, the frequency domain (FD) of surface geochemical data was analyzed to decompose the complex geochemical patterns related to different depths of the mineral deposit. In order to predict the variation in mineralization in the depth and identify the deep geochemical anomalies and blind mineralization using the surface geochemical data for the Dalli Cu-Au porphyry deposit, a ...

Decomposition and nitrogen dynamics of 15N‑labeled leaf, root, and twig litter in temperate coniferous forests" (2013). USDA Forest Service / UNL Faculty Publications. Paper 253. patterns were species-specific. For multiple litter × species combinations, the difference between gross and net n mineralization was significant, and gross mineralization was 7–20 % greater than net mineralization. th...

Iranian Cenozoic magmatic belt, known as Urumieh-Dokhtar, is recognized as an important polymetallic mineralization which hosts porphyry, epithermal, and polymetallic skarn deposits. In this regard, multivariate analyses are generally used to extract significant anomalous geochemical signature of the mineral deposits. In this study, stepwise factor analysis, cluster analysis, and concentration–...
