different types of iron oxides deposits have been identified along the khaf – dorouneh volcanic and plutonic belt in north east of iran. kuh-e-zar is one of these ore deposits known as fe- oxide gold deposit. the main purpose of this paper is to detect and discriminate the iron oxide minerals in this area based on the etm+ data. data processing has been done by envi (environment for visualizing...

The Zarshuran Carlin-like gold deposit is located at the Takab Metallogenic belt in the northern part of the Sanandaj-Sirjan zone, NW Iran. The high-grade ore bodies are mainly hosted by black shale and cream to gray massive limestone along the NNE-trending extensional fault/fracture zones. The aim of this investigation was to determine and separate the gold mineralized stages based on the surf...

 Background: This research studied the feasibility of a simple method for extracting gold from central processing units (CPUs) of computer circuit boards without solvent. Methods: Ceramic and composite CPUs of computer circuit boards were used. Gold was extracted using a hydrometallurgical method in six stages: grinding of CPUs, leaching in nitric acid, leaching in aqua regia, remov...

25 26 The Tropicana gold deposit is located adjacent to the margin of the Yilgarn craton in 27 the Albany–Fraser orogen, Western Australia. The deposit is hosted in granulite facies 28 quartzo-feldspathic gneisses of the Archean Tropicana Gneiss. Ore bodies comprise 29 biotite-pyrite alteration concentrated in shear zones that formed during NE-SW 30 shortening in the late Archean, and clearly p...

the gandy gold-base metal deposit is located in tertiary torud-chahshirin volcano-plutonic range, north of central iran. various styles of gold mineralization occur throughout the range. mineralization at gandy occurs in close spatial relation with rhyolitic domes in a caldera setting in a series of narrow brecciated veins. two mineralogically and spatially different argillic alterations have a...

because of high cost of drilling and analysis of samples, it needs to predict gold and silvers based on pathfinder such as as, sb, cd, pb and zn and decrease the cost and time exploration project implementation. in this paper, the model based on a multilayer perceptron artificial neural network (mlp-ann) optimized by invasive weed optimization algorithm (iwo) to predict of gold and silver in za...
