Book Rock Geochemistry in Mineral Exploration

Download or read book Rock Geochemistry in Mineral Exploration written by G.J.S. Govett and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Handbook of Exploration Geochemistry, Volume 3: Rock Geochemistry in Mineral Exploration focuses on the application of rock geochemistry in mineral exploration, including deposits of plutonic association, volcanic and sedimentary association, and sequence of geochemical exploration. The publication first elaborates on geochemistry in the exploration sequence, crustal abundance, geochemical behavior of elements, and problems of sampling and recognition of geochemical anomalies. Discussions focus on population partition, spatial distribution of data, abundance of elements, classification and geochemical behavior of elements, principles underlying geochemical exploration, sequence of geochemical exploration, and main types of geochemical surveys. The text then takes a look at regional scale exploration for deposits of plutonic association; regional scale exploration for vein and replacement deposits; and regional scale exploration for stratiform deposits of volcanic and sedimentary association. The book ponders on the synthesis of geochemical responses and operational conclusions, local and mine scale exploration for stratiform deposits of volcanic and sedimentary association in Cyprus, Turkey, and Oceania, New Brunswick deposits, and Precambrian, Proterozoic, and Kuroko deposits. The text is a valuable reference for researchers interested in the application of rock geochemistry in mineral exploration.

Book Geochemical Prospecting for Thorium and Uranium Deposits

Download or read book Geochemical Prospecting for Thorium and Uranium Deposits written by R.W. Boyle and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 509 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developments in Economic Geology, 16: Geochemical Prospecting for Thorium and Uranium Deposits focuses on the analysis of various geochemical methods applicable in the search for all types of thorium and uranium deposits. The publication first ponders on the general chemistry and geochemistry of thorium and uranium, deposits of thorium and uranium and their indicator elements, and geochemical prospecting for thorium and uranium. Discussions focus on radiation surveys, selection of areas, primary mineralization, supergene oxidation, and secondary enrichment of endogenic thorium and uranium deposits, and equilibrium in the natural radioactive series. The book then ponders on lithochemical, pedochemical, hydrochemical, and biogeochemical surveys of the geochemical prospecting for thorium and uranium. Topics include heavy and light mineral surveys of stream, river, pond, and lake sediments, detailed litochemical surveys utilizing primary halos, and case histories. The text takes a look at sampling procedures and analytical methods for estimating thorium and uranium and miscellaneous methods and atmochemical surveys on the geochemical prospecting for thorium and uranium, including isotopic methods, remote sensing and geothermal methods, and liquid inclusion and thermoluminescent methods. The book is a valuable source of data for researchers wanting to explore geochemical prospecting for thorium and uranium deposits.

Book Wall Rock Geochemistry of the Chester Vein  Sunshine Mine  Kellogg  Idaho

Download or read book Wall Rock Geochemistry of the Chester Vein Sunshine Mine Kellogg Idaho written by Nicholas Howard Tibbs and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Chester vein has been the major source of ore from the Sunshine mine, largest single producer of silver in the world. 425 samples of quartzite and argillite wall rocks were collected in 13 traverses across this vein on the 4400, 4600, and 4800 mining levels. These samples were analyzed for aluminum, magnesium, calcium, sodium, potassium, manganese, iron, lead, copper, and zinc by atomic absorption spectroscopy, and for silicon and sulfur by x-ray emission spectroscopy. Element distribution plots, linear correlation coefficient matrices, varimax factor analysis, and cluster analysis were employed to determine the geochemical processes that occurred in the wall rock. Examination of element distributions established that large scale leaching of calcium occurred concurrently with a stage of bleaching in the wall rock. Subsequent to this bleaching process, carbonatization (sideritization) of the wall rock, which occurred during siderite emplacement in the vein, resulted in aureoles of iron, manganese, magnesium, and calcium in the wall rock near the vein. These aureoles were shown to increase the exploration target by a factor of about 10. An inverse relationship was statistically established between sericite, represented by aluminum and potassium, and siderite, represented by iron and manganese, in the wall rock. The cause of this relationship was not determinable. It is recommended that a mineralogical study supercede this study to resolve this problem. The technique of cluster analysis was modified in order to permit meaningful geochemical interpretations. The modified technique provided the same results as factor analysis, but offered the advantage of an easily understood graphical representation of results"--Abstract, leaf ii.

Book Prospecting and Exploration of Mineral Deposits

Download or read book Prospecting and Exploration of Mineral Deposits written by M. Böhmer and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the completely revised edition of a book which was published in 1978 and, such was its popularity, was sold out within two years. It was described as ``An excellent compilation and condensation of a vast field of literature and experience in economic geology. Clear illustrations, charts and tables punctuate the text material very nicely... Valuable for all economic geologists and resource developers.'' (Choice).The material is illustrated by 215 text figures and 76 tables, and is presented in two parts. The first part covers the geological background of the genesis of mineral deposits as a clue to new discoveries, and the methods of geological, geochemical and geophysical prospecting. The second part concerns sampling, documentation and computation of ore reserves and economic assessment of mineral deposits. This new edition has been very extensively revised and brought up to date. This holds true particularly for the chapters on geochemical and geophysical methods, the use of photo-geology and satellite imagery, oil and gas prospecting, exploration of underwater minerals, the application of the principles of global tectonics in prospecting for deposits, and the evaluation of reserves. These new or thoroughly revised chapters comprise almost half of the entire text.
