بررسي ژئوشيميايي و پتانسيل يابي عناصر گروه پلاتين (PGE) در منطقه معدني فارياب

Geochemical Investigation of Platinum-Group Elements in Faryab Area

Platinum-Group elements (PGE) deposits often found with layered mafic-ultramafic association and PGE enrichments occur in Cu and Ni-rich sulfide mineralization. It has been shown that elements ratio, as well as chondrite-normalized metal patterns can be successfully used for evaluation of PGE enrichment. Faryab ophiolite area is the main resources of chromite in south of Iran that has sulfide mineralization in different lithology. Sulfide phases recognized by Microscopic methods. It indicates that main sulfides are include pyrrhotite, pentlandite, millerite and heazlewoodite. Samples (18 Samples) are analyzed by ICP-MS and Results indicate that partial melting has occurred and PGE mineralization has done. Determination of accurate content of PGE in other rocks required more studies.
