Application of spectrum–area fractal model to identify of geochemical anomalies based on soil data in Kahang porphyry-type Cu deposit, Iran

Separation of a geochemical anomaly from background by fractal and U-statistic methods, a case study: Khooni district, Central Iran

“…Average concentration values are used for those boxes containing more than one sample. Area-concentration [A()] with element concentrations greater than usually shows a power-law relation (Cheng et al, 1994;Pazand et al, 2011;Afzal et al, 2013). The breaks between straight-line segments on this plot and the corresponding values of have been used as cut-offs to separate geochemical values into different components, representing different causal factors, such as lithological differences and geochemical processes.…”

Application of an Inverse Distance Weighted Anisotropic Method for Rock Quality Designation distribution in Eastern Kahang deposit, Central Iran

“…Studies Investigation of the pattern of zonation in the eastern part of the Kahang deposit show indicates that the most significant major mineralisation (in terms of ore zone size and geometry) is hypogene zone which containing includes a high percentage volumes of chalcopyrite accompanied byand pyrite. The major main alteration zones of are potassic, phyllic, argillic and propylitic types were accompanied by thewith vein to veinlets fillings of quartz, quartz-magnetite and Fe-hydroxides [39][40].…”

Estimation of Elemental Distributions by Combining Artificial Neural Network and Inverse Distance Weighted (IDW) Based on Lithogeochemical Data in Kahang Porphry Deposit, Central Iran

“…The Kahang mineralized area includes a Cu Mo porphyry deposit and was discovered in 2005 by remote sensing imaging techniques, geophysical methods and geochemical studies [27]. Geological, geophysical, geochemical, alteration patterns as well as drilling data show that there could be a large Cu porphyry deposit as Kahang [27,28,29]. Target zones are mainly comprised of Eocene volcano-pyroclastic rocks which intruded by Oligo-Miocene quartz monzonite, monzogranitediorite to diorites (Figure 1).…”
