Yeylagh-e-Gharechi porphyry copper deposit is located in the Arasbaran metallogenic belt at northwestern Iran, 25 kilometer of Ahar. Porphyry mineralization at the Yeylagh-e-Gharechi deposit occurred in post-Oligocene quartz monzonite and monzonite bodies which was hosted by Eocene volcanic rocks. Mineralization occurred as veins, veinlets and dissemination in hypogene zone. Supergene zone has ...

this paper describes the application of approximate methods to invert airborne magnetic data as well as helicopter-borne frequency domain electromagnetic data in order to retrieve a joint model of magnetic susceptibility and electrical resistivity. the study area located in semnan province of iran consists of an arc-shaped porphyry andesite covered by sedimentary units which may have potential ...

This paper describes the application of a well-known Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) technique called Preference Ranking Organization METHod for Enrichment Evaluation (PROMETHEE II) to explore porphyry copper deposits. Various raster-based evidential layers involving geological, geophysical, and geochemical geo-datasets are integrated to prepare a mineral prospectivity mapping (MPM). In a...

1. Introduction Thompson-Okanagan-Cariboo is an administrative region in south-central BC, established after the province reorganized its natural resource agencies in 2010. Mining predates Confederation and today, the region is home to fi ve of BC's largest metal mines, several industrial mineral mines, and many small placer operations, gravel pits, and rock quarries. power), and skilled worker...

Abstract Porphyry-type deposits are the world’s main source of copper and molybdenum provide a large proportion gold other metals. However, mechanism by which mineralising fluids extracted from magmas transported upwards into ore-forming environment is not clearly understood. Here we use field, micro-textural geochemical techniques to investigate field relationships samples circa 8 km deep cros...

In order to improve our understanding of the mineral potential of northern Vancouver Island beyond the wellknown intrusion-related Cu-Au-Ag(-Mo) porphyry deposits (e.g., Hushamu, MINFILE 092L 240 and the former Island Copper mine, MINFILE 092L 158) and base and precious-metal skarns (e.g., Merry Widow, MINFILE 092L 044), we need a better understanding of the stratigraphy of the Bonanza island a...

Large albitite bodies associated with explosive brecciation, fenite aureoles, intrusive carbonate rocks, olivine dolerites, and copper mineralization are described from the Dead Sea rift region in the south-eastern Sinai Peninsula. The main carbonate phases comprise breunnerite and dolomite with actinolite the main phase in the fenites. Field and isotopic evidence indicates that the intrusive c...

Copper, obtained from porphyry deposits formed in arc settings, is a critical resource, and primarily sourced magmas. However, the processes that shape copper contents of magmas are up for debate. Existing models place emphasis on different petrological agents explain large-scale trends systematics. Previous studies have noted ’Cu paradox,’ where with high Sr/Y ratios, indicative ore-forming po...
