We report indium, germanium, gallium, and other minor trace elements contents in sphalerite, chalcopyrite, galena, tetrahedrite-tennantite occurring skarn skarn-free (“Cordilleran”) polymetallic mantos vein ore bodies the Miocene porphyry-related Morococha District, Central Peru. Among investigated minerals, LA-ICP-MS measurements indicate that In Ga concentrate mostly sphalerite (Inter-Quartil...

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 ...

the northwestern part of the kerman cenozoic magmatic arc (kcma) contains many areas with porphyry copper mineralization. in this research, we used the advanced space-borne thermal emission and reflection radiometer (aster) and enhanced thematic mapper plus (etm+) images of this region to map the distribution of hydrothermally altered rocks, based on their mineral assemblages. the spectral meas...

In 2003, Red Chris Development Company started collecting baseline data to support its application for environmental approvals to mine the Red Chris porphyry copper-gold deposit located in northwestern British Columbia, Canada. An extensive geochemical testing program revealed that the majority of the waste rock has the potential to generate acid. However, the presence of significant quantities...

Prospectivity modelling has been completed over the Lachlan Fold Belt, New South Wales, Australia, using the GIS based weights of evidence modelling technique to target porphyry Cu-Au, associated skarn Cu-Au, orogenic Au and VMS Au mineralisation. The Lachlan Fold Belt is a 700 km wide belt of Paleozoic accretionary terrains, stretching from Queensland to Tasmania. Porphyry and skarn mineralisa...

In this paper, we used 3D modeling and nonlinear methods (fractal, multifractal, and probabilistic neural networks (PNN)) for regional mineral potential mapping and quantitative assessment for porphyry and skarn-type Mo deposits and hydrothermal vein-type Pb–Zn–Ag deposits in the Luanchuan region, China. A 3D geological model was constructed from various geological maps, cross sections, borehol...

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 ...
