Показатели продуктивности порфировых месторождений Cu-Au+Pd±Pt: данные из Скуриса, полуостров Халкидики, Греция, и сравнение с мировыми минерализациями

: The research interest for many authors has been focused on the origin, recovery, and exploration of critical metals, including platinum-group elements (PGEs), with the aim of finding new potential sources. Many giant porphyry Cu deposits are well known around the Pacific Rim, in the Balkan–Carpathian system, Himalayas, China, and Malaysia. However, only certain porphyry Cu-Au deposits are characterized by the presence of significant Pd and Pt contents (up to 20 ppm).

Количественная оценка минеральных ресурсов платины, палладия, золота, никеля и меди в неоткрытых месторождениях PGE в основных и ультраосновных расслоенных  интрузиях в Финляндии

Most of the known platinum group element (PGE) resources in Finland are in contact- and reef-type deposits in 2.45 Ga mafic-ultramafic layered intrusions. These intrusions also have the potential to contain the majority of possibly existing, yet undiscovered, PGE resources in Finland. The undiscovered Pt, Pd, Au, Ni, and Cu resources in contact- and reef-type deposits were estimated down to one kilometre depth using the three-part quantitative assessment method.

In recent years, there has been increasing interest from geoscientists in potassic igneous rocks. Academic geoscientists have been interested in their petrogenesis and their potential value in defining the tectonic setting of the terranes into which they were intruded, and exploration geoscientists have become increasingly interested in the association of these rocks with major epithermal gold and porphyry gold-copper deposits. Despite this current interest, there is no comprehensive textbook that deals with these aspects of potassic igneous rocks. 

Оценка геохимических методов исследования почв для обнаружения медно-золотой порфировой минерализации в четвертичных ледниково-флювиальных отложениях в зонах WBX-MBX и 66, гора Миллиган, северо-центральная часть Британской Колумбии.

This study is the second and final part of a Geoscience BC funded project (Project 2009-19) carried out by the author to test the effectiveness of a variety of commonly used chemical extractions at detecting mineralization through thick Quaternary glaciofluvial cover. In the first part carried out at the Kwanika Central Zone (Heberlein and Samson, 2010), results showed that conventional soil sampling (an aqua regia digestion of -80 mesh screened, upper B horizon) is ineffective at detecting the buried mineralization. Furthermore, laboratory specific extractions like MMI-M (SGS) and Ionic Leach (ALS-Chemex), Enzyme Leach and Bioleach (Actlabs) also performed poorly.

Магматические гидротермальные флюиды в осадочных вмещающих породах, связанное с интрузиями золо-медное месторождение Телфер, Ороген Патерсон, Западная Австралия: Ограничения давления, температуры и состава рудообразующих флюидов

The Neoproterozoic Telfer deposit, one of Australia’s largest gold-copper deposits, is located in the Paterson orogen. Several highly differentiated calc-alkaline to alkali-calcic peraluminous granites intruded the metasedimentary rocks near (5–20 km) Telfer contemporaneously with structurally controlled gold-copper mineralization. Fluid inclusion assemblages with different fluid inclusion types were identified in samples from a range of different vein types.

This book will address three primary metals and their associated metals. The primary metals are Platinum Group of Elements or Metals (PGE or PGM), nickel, and chromium. The associated metals include copper, gold, silver, and cobalt. The platinum group consists of six metals and occurs naturally in close association with one another as well as with nickel, chromium, copper, and cobalt. The group of metals represents a unique geological process having a common source of metal supply and a genetic model. The PGM is among the least abundant group of elements of the Earth’s element family.

This manual classifies and describes differing styles of southwest Pacific rim gold-copper systems, and analyses hydrothermal ore-forming processes. Investigations of these systems in terms of structure, alteration and styles of mineralization provide information which may help determine the direction of fluid flow within evolving hydrothermal systems. 

Domestic survey data and tables were prepared by Hema Edupugante, Michael Leahy, and Wanda Wooten, statistical assistants, and the world production tables were prepared by Regina R. Coleman and Glenn J. Wallace, international data coordinators. 
In 2003, mine production of recoverable copper in the United States fell by about 26,000 metric tons (t) to the lowest level since 1985.
