The Petrography, Mineralography and Microprobe Analysis on New Exploratory Excavation Phase in Sarcheshmeh Copper Mine Pit and Comparing Them with Existing Data from the Other Area in South West Sarcheshmeh ()
ABSTRACT
Kerman region where Sarcheshmeh zone is located includes the end part of Uremia-Dokhtar
Zone. Extrusive igneous group in Sarcheshmeh is as follows: 1) andesite and 2)
rhyodacite. The group of intrusive igneous rocks includes 1) porphyry granite, 2)
porphyry granodiorite, and 3) porphyry diorite. Nochoon mine is located at 4 km of
southwest of Sarcheshmeh copper mine and it comprises
of a group of extrusive igneous rocks as follows: 1)
andesite, and 2) dacite. Based on results of microprobe analysis, pyroxene
mineral’s composition in these rocks of diopside and augite
indicates amphiboles of composite zone of magnesium hosting type and existing plagioclases in regional rock for labradorite and
bitonit composition. The most common compounds are chlorite with formula among
antigorite and amosite. Comparison of magnetite mineralization in Sarcheshmeh
and Nochoon indicates vein mineralization in Nochoon and disseminated
granulation in Sarcheshmeh and particularly concerning to chalcopyrite, Nochoon
includes more veins than Sarcheshmeh.
