In gold (Au) exploration, the analysis of both bulk leach extractable (BLEG) and acid-extractable Au in <180μm stream sediment fraction are two most common approaches. The Eskişehir- Sivrihisar region Western Türkiye hosts several orogenic type mineral deposits. purpose this study is to delineate geochemical anomalies ore-related elements track their dispersion, which may lead discovery unknown...

concentrations of 42 trace elements, including rare earths, in croatian thermal waters wereinvestigated. originating from different parts of croatia, i.e. different types of aquifers, studied thermal watersprovide insight into the range of concentrations of broad spectrum of elements in croatian thermal waters.covering a wide range of temperature (30 - 92 °c), studied thermal waters are general...

Separation of geochemical anomalies from background has always been a major concern of exploration geochemistry. The search for methods that can make this analysis quantitative and objective aims not only at the reduction of subjectiveness but also at providing an automatic routine in exploration, assisting the interpretation and production of geochemical maps. This report discusses two methodo...

The end of the Palaeozoic is marked by two mass-extinction events during the Middle Permian (Capitanian) and the Late Permian (Changhsingian). Given similarities between the two events in geochemical signatures, such as large magnitude negative dC anomalies, sedimentological signatures such as claystone breccias, and the approximate contemporaneous emplacement of large igneous provinces, many a...

The dynamic processes within the Earth leave their record in geophysical and geochemical variation about the general stratification with depth. A snapshot of current structure is provided by geophysical evidence, whereas geochemical information provides a perspective over the age of the Earth. The combination of information on the distribution of heterogeneity from geophysical and geochemical s...

the dehbid magnetite deposit is located in northeastern part of fars province, in the southern border of sanandaj-sirjan metamorphic zone. the mineralization occurred as veins and lenses along nw-se faults. the ores are mainly hosted in silicified dolomite of early mesozoic (triassic). mineralogical studies show that the ores are dominated by magnetite and minor hematite with massive texture oc...

But primarily this project recognizes that, given a supportive permitting and fiscal environment, there can be no better way of encouraging exploration in an area than providing prospectors and companies with sound exploration targets which have not yet been tested. Government geological databases and modern software techniques can be combined to cost-effectively generate such new, easily valid...

Materials circulation in Earth’s mantle will be modified if partial melting occurs in the transition zone. Melting in the transition zone is plausible if a significant amount of incompatible components is present in Earth’s mantle. We review the experimental data on melting and melt density and conclude that melting is likely under a broad range of conditions, although conditions for dense melt...
