Ore Deposit Analysis

[Fayad]

Hello all, 

Pleasure to join you.

I hope that to discuss with me about the possibility of exploring the ore.

The area is an alteration zone ( fain garains sands silt and clay)

 

We supposed first Sulfides occurred because of The volcanoes in the area originated over 6 million years ago, during the late Miocene and Pliocene epochs, and continued until 5.1 million years, after that an oxidation process happened because of water weathering or leaching because of the delta.

 

 

 

The rainwater delta region is not existed anymore, long time ago the rainwater water drainage was vanished because of lack of rains, we determined the rainwater delta region from the satellite images.

 

 

 

Ground water in the area is located about 60m depth, and it's warm water. There is a water well in the area when they had installed plastic water pipes, it melted inside.

 

 

 

Some rocks fragments come out with the water, some of them attracted via magnets like iron.

 

 

 

The area is a rainwater delta region about one kilometer far from the sea, but when we were digging we found small sea snail shells.

 

 

This is a photo of the nuggets that I mentioned above ( clay coated, it's when I broke it apart it's black from inside)

Actually, we did atomic absorption analysis for a sample from 2m depth, we got Au 0.3 ppm

We did the same for a sample from 3m depth we got Au 0.4 ppm

 

We go deeper into 7m depth we found oxidation zone ( yellow - red - black), all of the layers ( silt - silt clay- clay ), except a thin layer of gravels in 5m depth the gravel is altered and coated with silica, jasperoid is present, although the area is an ancient rainwater delta region, the gravels are flattened and not rounded well and some of them are broken.

 

We found somethings look like nuggets but clay coated, the soil from 3m depth to 7m depth very rich of this kind of nuggets, we cleaned them from clay we got black nuggets we broke it apart we looked inside it is black. When we cleaned them with water and soap we got golden gray color broke it apart still black inside, we put them on the stovetop burner for 5 minutes they turned black and left the stovetop burner with torns and red green golden colors (you can see in the image), we put them on a spoon they turned whitish gray and left the spoon with colors ( golden- yellow- red) (you can see in the image), we crashed them we got a light gray powder.

 

These are some samples of gravels in the area, please take a look ( the images)

What is the second and third from the bottom showing?  Looks like a rusty spoon and rusty dish.

Other than the rocks that look good wet, will look better tumbled, I can’t help you.

Not quite sure of the question asked. If the rocks are samples from an alluvial plain the rock may have been transported from mountains located miles away. The layering in some of the rock samples of the first photo may be meta sedimentary, the darker rocks may be basalt. If you are thinking the samples are gold ore take a look at your own analysis results. If you are thinking the hydrothermal activity beneath the alluvial deposits may be related to gold deposition you may be correct. However, that would require broader core sampling and more analysis. A shallow localized epithermal deposit associated with recent volcanic activity and sulfides could be a possibility. What are the 6th & 9th photos, is that iron oxidation, an iron stained calcium carbonate deposit, hydrothermal oxidation of ironstone..
