Explore the Metal Elements of Chadegan Based on Geophysical Data and Remote Sensing

Abstract

The studied area is located on the one hundred thousand page of Chadegan, in the middle of Sanandaj-Sirjan zone and on the metalogenic belt of Malayer-Golpayegan, in the western part of this to Isfahan province. With regard to the anomalies of metallic minerals in the region and considering the growing demand for metals from metals-related industries, particularly lead and zinc and while most exploration and geological activities in the region are old has never lead to any comprehensive results. In this project, first the geographical and geological location of the region is studied and then remote sensing was applied in the area and then satellite images sensors ETM+ were analyzed with ENVI 4.8 software and reflective elements and promising areas were introduced. In the next step, Lead and Zinc anomalies were studied by geochemical methods and by data obtained from 900 samples from the region, map of lead and zinc anomalies of the area was drawn by software SURFER 10, then we matched it with the report from the agency and finally we compared the results together. As a result, it became clear three areas were determined for Pb-Zn which are mostly located in the eastern half of the Chadegan 1:100 000 page, which is the area around Tiran A and Asgaran-Krone B, meaning Northeastern part of the page, and around Hoorah C (around Zayandeh Rood River) which is the Southeastern part of the Chadegan page, they were all introduced for more detailed studies.
