This paper documents the exploration significance of Ag/Au, Au/Cu, Cu/Mo and (Ag×Au)/Cu×Mo) ratios of the supra-ore and sub-ore halos versus fluid inclusion evolution for 24 Cu, 6 Cu- Mo and 10 Cu-Au porphyry deposits worldwide. The ratios are based only on the economic and mineralized hypogene alteration zones. The results indicate that (Ag×Au)/(Cu×Mo), Au/Cu and Cu/Mo ratios increase with dec...

[1] Hydroschorlomite, a Ti-, Ca-, Fe-rich andraditic garnet present in the deepest cores of basalts (661– 749 mbsf) drilled in Hole 1256D during Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 206 (equatorial east Pacific), is reported here for the first time in oceanic crust. Detailed petrological and mineralogical studies by optical microscope, electron microprobe, scanning and transmission electron microsc...

The Haft-Savaran Pb-Zn mineralization zone with the lower Jurassic age is located in the southern basin of Arak and Malayer-Isfahan metallogenic belt of Iran. Based upon the geological map of the Haft-Savaran area, the sandstone and shale of lower Jurassic are the main rocks of Pb-Zn deposit. In this area, 170samples were taken from 33 boreholes, and44 elements were measured by the ICP-MS metho...

Previous research has shown that good looks, particularly being deemed attractive or competent-looking, can provide an electoral advantage. There is also evidence to support the notion that more dominant looks are associated with military success. To date, there has been little research into the effect of looks on political leadership success in a non-democratic setting. This project explores t...

Hypogene speleogenesis involves the formation of solution-enlarged permeability structures driven by ascending water acquiring its acidity from deep-seated sources. This process occurs in a wide range geological settings and different lithologies. Although hypogene has received increasing attention last two decades, identification former activity caves remains challenging, unless unambiguous mo...
