The Mehdiabad zinc-lead deposit, which is located at the East of Mehriz city, is a carbonate-hosted ore deposit lying in the dolomitic rocks of Taft Formation. This deposit is composed of oxide-carbonate and sulfide ores. Different spectral processing techniques were applied to ASTER and Landsat 8-OLI multispectral images to detect different mineralization zones and associated alterations. In O...

Rock unites which are exposed in Tak-I mine area are: Taknar formation (Ordovician), Mid-late Paleozoic and younger intrusive rocks. Taknar formation consists of sericite schist, chlorite schist, chlorite-sericite schist and some meta-diabase- gabbro-diorite. Taknar Polymetal (Cu-Zn-Au-Ag-Pb) Massive sulfide deposit formed at certain horizon of Taknar formation. Three style of mineralization ar...

Dehzaman iron deposit is located southwest of Bardaskan, Khorasan Razavi province, and northeast of Kashmar-Kerman Tectonic Zone. Geology of the study area consists of late-Neoprotrozoic-lower Cambrian metamorphsed volcano-sedimentary units, including slate- phyllite, sericite schist, recrystallized carbonate rocks, metarhyolite-metarhyodacite and granitic intrusions. Mineralization is hosted b...

The Shalang vein-type polymetallic ore deposit is located about 10 km southwest of Kerman and 70 km northeast of Sirjan, and lies in the central part of the Dehaj-Sarduieh metallogenic belt. This deposit is hosted by dacitic and andesitic vitric and crystal tuffs along with andesitic-dacitic lava flows of Eocene age. The alteration zones related to this deposit are propylitic, intermediate argi...

Angouran zinc and lead deposit is located about 135 km west of Zanjan city, in the northwest of the Sanandaj-Sirjan structural zone The results of this study indicate that the dolomitic alteration occurred in the carbonate hanging-wall and the presence of ankerite in the schist footwall. The main host of ore deposit is metamorphic carbonate. The Angouran dolomite is secondary and hydrothermal. ...

The Jalal Abad iron ore deposit is one of the seven most important iron ore deposilS in the central Iran. with a probable are reserve of 200.4 million tons of iron ore in which the average grades are estimated as 44.28% Fe, 0.83% Sand 0.07%P. In the Jalal Abad deposit two types of orebodies are identified: the orebodies which are concordant with respect to the sedimentarY most rocks (Jala...

The Tang Zagh iron deposit is located about 117 km Northeast of Bandar Abbas, Hormozgan Province in the structural folded-thrusted zone of the Zagros basin. Iron mineralization occurs in the form of iron oxides (hematite) within the salt dome and/or in fractures and between the layers of the younger strata with the Tertiary age. Based on the microscopic studies, dolomitic fragments of the host ...
