25 26 The Tropicana gold deposit is located adjacent to the margin of the Yilgarn craton in 27 the Albany–Fraser orogen, Western Australia. The deposit is hosted in granulite facies 28 quartzo-feldspathic gneisses of the Archean Tropicana Gneiss. Ore bodies comprise 29 biotite-pyrite alteration concentrated in shear zones that formed during NE-SW 30 shortening in the late Archean, and clearly p...

The Tareek Darreh gold deposit is located 40km north of Torbat-e Jaam in the Khorassan-Razavi province, NE-Iran. The study area mainly comprises slightly metamorphosed, sedimentary rocks of Jurassic age including alternation of shale, siltstone, and sandstone. These rocks have been intruded by plutonic rocks such as gabbro-norite, diorite, quartz-diorite, and rhyodacite. The ore bodes are expos...

the gandy gold-base metal deposit is located in tertiary torud-chahshirin volcano-plutonic range, north of central iran. various styles of gold mineralization occur throughout the range. mineralization at gandy occurs in close spatial relation with rhyolitic domes in a caldera setting in a series of narrow brecciated veins. two mineralogically and spatially different argillic alterations have a...

because of high cost of drilling and analysis of samples, it needs to predict gold and silvers based on pathfinder such as as, sb, cd, pb and zn and decrease the cost and time exploration project implementation. in this paper, the model based on a multilayer perceptron artificial neural network (mlp-ann) optimized by invasive weed optimization algorithm (iwo) to predict of gold and silver in za...

An ultralow amount of platinum can be deposited on the gold surface using copper underpotential deposition and galvanic exchange. The platinum tended to deposit as layers on the octahedral gold nanocrystals with an Au(111) surface, while it aggregated and formed small particles on the cubic gold nanocrystals with an Au(100) surface.
