We present high-precision chemical abrasion-isotope dilution-thermal ionization mass spectrometry (CA-IDTIMS) U-Pb zircon and isotope dilution-negative-thermal ionization mass spectrometry (ID-N-TIMS) Re-Os molybdenite geochronology of the world-class Tibetan Qulong porphyry Cu-Mo deposit. The data is used to constrain the timing, duration, and to yield implications for the ore-forming processe...

Čukaru Peki is a recently discovered porphyry- high-sulfidation Cu-Au deposit located 5km south of the mining town Bor in east Serbia. Three styles mineralization are distinguished system: type with massive sulfides (named Upper zone), porphyry Lower zone) and transition (between porphyries sulfides). This study investigates concentration distribution trace elements pyrite from these three zone...

Mineral resource classification is an important step in mineral exploration and mining engineering. In this study, copper molybdenum resources were classified using a combination of the Turning Bands Simulation (TBSIM) Concentration–Volume (C–V) fractal model based on Conditional Coefficient Variation (CCV) for Cu realizations Masjed Daghi porphyry deposit, NW Iran. research, 100 scenarios loca...

In this work, the concentration gradient (CG) analysis of local-scale exploration for Porphyry-Cu deposits is applied in two zones using the G(Vz) index (CG(Zn*Pb)/CG(Cu*Mo)). The first zone is covered by a 1:2000 map of the Sungun and Astamal areas in NW Iran and the second one in the Inza area in British Columbia, Canada. The rock samples are taken from Sungun and Astamal and the soil samples...

Molybdenite is a common sulfide hosting many trace elements. Trace elements in molybdenite from individual deposits have been widely used to constrain the source and conditions of ore-forming fluids. However, relationship between element composition deposit types has not well investigated large dataset. Here, simple statistics partial least squares–discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) were determine ...

The Sungun  copper  porphyry deposit is hosted by a Tertiary magmatic complex in  the  Azarbayjan province , northwestern Iran. The  Sungan mine  in its southern and eastern parts is limited  by early Miocene volcanic and by Late Cretaceous limestone rocks in northern and eastern parts respectively . The Sungun  deposit is associated with a suite of porphyritic granitoids and late dikes intrudi...
