The Mississippi Valley Type Pb-Zn ore deposits of northern Semnan could be classified as 1) Eram Series in north-west of Shahmirzad and 2) Shahmirzad Series in south and east of Shahmirzad. The host rocks of these mineralizations are Cretaceous carbonates and fawlts have a major role in controlling hypogene ore formation. Age, mineralogy and structural evidences of both series show a resemblanc...

The sowthwest of Sorkh kuh prospecting area is located in 120 km SW of Birjand city, western Lut Block. Geology of this area comprising andesitic and basaltic volcanic rocks, which have intruded by intrusive rocks such as hornblende diorite, hornblende tonalite, and biotite monzonite caused extensively alteration and mineralization. Based on remote sensing, field survey, petrography, and XRD, m...

Freezi Lead- Zinc- Copper prospect area is located in north east Mashhad in Khorassan Razavi Province. Mineralization was formed in the area as vein type in the host rocks of slate with interlayer of phyllite and meta sandstone of Upper Triassic to Early Jurassic age (equivalent to Shemshak Formation). The only alteration in the host rock is silicification. Primary minerals are quartz, galena, ...

Sarchah Cu-Au mineralization area is located in South Khorasan Province, about 180 km southwest of Birjand city, and in Lut Block Tertiary magmatism assemblages. Geology of the area consists of Eocene to Holocene volcanic lavas with basalt – andesite composition and crystal tuff. Landsat and ASTER data detected alunite, jarosite, sericite, epidote, and kaolinite alteration minerals using"standa...

Dahaneh Qaleh exploration prospect is located about 300 km south west of Mashhad and is belong to the Taknar structural unit. This unit is separated from Sabzevar structural unit with Taknar fault in the north and Darouneh fault in the south, is the separator of this unite from Lut structural unit. Before the operation field, ASTER sensor data processing introduces Hematitic, Chloritic, Epidoti...
