As a specific assemblage of rocks and minerals, ore deposit is the product under joint action structure, magma, fluid mineralizing activities in long geological time, which limited distribution range fixed spatial output position, shape occurrence. The material composition bodies (ores) different from that surrounding (nonore), some are even diametrically opposite.

Ninety-six particulate matter (PM10) chemical source profiles for geological sources in typical cities of southwest China were acquired from Source Profile Shared Service in China. Twenty-six elements (Na, Mg, Al, Si, K, Ca, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ga, As, Se, Sr, Cd, Sn, Sb, Ba, Be, Tl and Pb), nine ions (F−, Cl−, SO4, NO3, Na+, NH4, K+, Mg2+ and Ca2+), and carbon-containing species...

Potential field methods such as gravity and magnetic methods are among the most applied geophysical methods in mineral exploration. A high-resolution technique is developed to image geologic boundaries such as contacts and faults. Potential field derivatives are the basis of many interpretation techniques. In boundary detection, the analytic signal quantity is d...
