The Kirazlı mineral district is located at the center of Biga peninsula metallogenic province, in a geological setting characterized by an extensional tectonic environment. hosts high-sulfidation (HS) ore body with total reserve 33.86 Mt @ 0.69 g/t Au and 9.42 Ag within large-scale hydrothermal alteration. Although ideal magmatic-hydrothermal models present spatial temporal association HS-epith...

All available workers engaged in bagging an artificial crystalline aluminium silicate--the kiln-dried residue from the calcining and water extraction of alunite (a hydrated sulphate of aluminium and potassium) that is currently classified as a nuisance dust--were studied after a complaint of respiratory and systemic symptoms, including arthritis, by an employee of the factory, who showed physio...

This study produces alteration mineral maps based on WorldView-3 (WV-3) data and field shortwave-infrared (SWIR) spectroscopy. It is supported by conventional analytical methods such as X-ray diffraction, fluorescence, electron probe micro analyzer an initial step for exploration in eastern Tsogttsetsii, Mongolia, where access limited. Distributions of advanced argillic minerals (alunite, dicki...

The Great Basin of the Western United States has thin continental crust and geologic structures that have controlled the emplacement of significant precious and base metal mineralization. Many of the mineral deposits in the Great Basin were emplaced by hydrothermal processes that altered the mineralogy of their host rock assemblages and facilitated concentration of metals. In the 1960’s and 197...
