Chalcopyrite is the main ore mineral of copper, large low grade ore deposits are formed by igneous processes When rocks containing Chalcopyrite are exposed at the surface they undergo chemical weathering that can cause secondary enrichment
The study aimed at investigating the chemical composition and microstructure of raw iron ore from the deposits in Muko area (south-western Uganda) The quality of this iron ore was evaluated to establish its suitability to serve as a raw material for iron production Samples were taken from the six hills of Muko ore deposits and tests carried out to establish their composition and properties
In most epigenetic ore deposits, structures superimposed on the rocks have exerted a great influence upon the path of circulation followed by the orebearing fluids Faults and folds are probably the most common secondary structures, though breccia zones, pipes, …
Sources of Metals and Other Ore Components Despite thousands of published papers on VMS depos-its resulting from intensive study over the past 50 years, and despite the incredible opportunities to observe and sample actively-forming deposits on the seafloor, there is continued debate about the fluids that form economic VMS ore deposits
Thus we summarize the state of knowledge regarding ore deposit models, and we call them "mineral deposit models" with the hope that what we have learned about large and high-grade metal concentrations will help us sort out all mineral occurrences to identify their true character and, we hope, to recognize which have potential to constitute ore
