the aim of this study was to identify various sulfidic mineralized zones in the ghare-tappeh cu deposit (nw iran) based on geo-electrical data including induced polarization (ip) and resistivity (rs) using the concentration-volume (c-v) and number-size (n-s) fractal models. the fractal models were used to separate high and moderate sulfidic zones from low sulfidic zones and barren wall rocks. b...

The purpose of this work is to compare the linear and non-linear kriging methods in the mineral resource estimation of the Qolqoleh gold deposit in Saqqez, NW Iran. Considering the fact that the gold distribution is positively skewed and has a significant difference with a normal curve, a geostatistical estimation is complicated in these cases. Linear kriging, as a resource estimation method, c...

This study aims to evaluate the efficiency of the concentration-number (C-N) fractal model for discrimination of soil horizon regarding the depth distribution profile. In this regard, soil parameters such as pH, organic carbon content, calcareous mineral content, electrical conductivity and available phosphorus of Ziarat forestland in Golestan Province, north of Iran, has been investigated. The...

The purpose of this study is to determine geochemical anomalies on lithogeochemical data from Ardestan area, Central Iran, using concentration-number (C-N) fractal modeling and staged factor analysis. Staged factor analysis is used to the recognition of genetic correlation and elimination of non-indicator elements in three steps. Factor scores of elements were calculated and geochemical data cl...

introduction: soil hydraulic conductivity is considered as one of the most important hydraulic properties in water and solutionmovement in porous media. in recent years, variousmodels as pedo-transfer functions, fractal models and scaling technique are used to estimate the soil saturated hydraulic conductivity (ks). fractal models with two subset of two (solid and pore) and three phases (solid,...

In this paper, correlation between rock types and Cu mineralization obtained by Concentration-Number (C-N) fractal model calculated in Kushk-e-Bahram Cu deposit, Central Iran. This deposit is located in the Urumieh-Dokhtar magmatic arc (UDMA). The main subject in this study was determination of relation between the Cu grade populations and rock types based on subsurface data using logratio matr...

one of the important aspects of soil is, knowing the relationships between spatial features of soil and quantity in statistical model. the goal of this research is to estimate saturated hydraulic conductivity by regression and co-active neuro-fuzzy inference system (anfis) with using the parameters of bulk density, real density, porosity, fractal dimension of particle size, and clay percent, si...
