Multiple uncertainties such as the location of non-deposit sites or the type of machine learning algorithm (MLA) can bias the MPM. To investigate these effects, we used multiple training datasets with different non-deposits locations, randomly created, and MLAs such as Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Random Forests (RF) and Support Vector Machine (SVM), to model orogenic-Au prospectivity in the Pitangui Greenstone Belt (PGB, Brazil). Regarding the implications in the methodology for MPM, there are great differences between the models' performances in mapping prospective zones when there is a slightly change in the location of negative samples. These changes can be observed by using the Shapley additive explanation metrics (SHAP values), which can help mitigate such effects by choosing an optimal model among all randomly created datasets. The SHAP values of non-deposit sites also showed that ANN and SVM present overfitting problems despite the use of balanced data. RF on the other hand outperformed in all ten datasets and showed great recognition and adjustment to the negative samples. The results presented in this research are also promising to the prospective studies in the PGB, as it shows a map capable to correctly predict 97 % of the known deposits and occurrences in 3 % of the total area and points the new frontiers for gold exploration in the PGB.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":16336,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geochemical Exploration","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141539549","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While univariate analysis can effectively identify lithological units with pronounced variations, it may fail to differentiate between subtler variations in lithologies. Traditional multivariate techniques such as principal component analysis (PCA) have limitations, including difficulties in understanding the individual contributions of each variable and an inability to work with non-Gaussian data. Independent component analysis (ICA) has emerged as a potential alternative, as it can effectively identify independent components of non-Gaussian data. In this study, we compared the effectiveness of PCA and ICA in relating multivariate soil geochemistry to parent lithology using the Soil Geochemical Atlas of Cyprus and associated digital geological maps. Both PCA and ICA were able to differentiate between the ultramafic units within the Troodos Ophiolite (TO) and the Circum-Troodos Sedimentary Succession (CTSS). However, ICA was more effective than PCA in identifying pillow lavas, providing a clear separation in the scores for IC4 and IC5. Furthermore, both PCA and ICA were able to separate the sheeted dykes from the cumulate mafic units within the TO. The gabbro unit is closely defined by IC2 scores. In contrast, PCA failed to provide factors that effectively delineated the Mamonia Terrane from other units, especially the TO, while ICA was able to provide a distinct separation in IC4 and IC5 scores. Separation between the CTSS and Quaternary units was weakly observed in IC2 scores. These findings demonstrate that there is a difference in the effectiveness of PCA and ICA in identifying different lithological units and emphasize the need for a careful selection of multivariate methods to differentiate between subtle differences in soil geochemistry relating to variations in parent lithology.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":16336,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geochemical Exploration","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141540481","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the parent rocks of bauxite deposits generally have low REE contents, leading to uncertainty over the REE sources and enrichment mechanisms. In this study, we report high REE (2095 ppm; Ce = 1340 ppm) contents in the Lijiatian bauxite deposit in Luxi County, western Hunan Province, South China. The Lijiatian bauxite deposit is the largest deposit in Hunan Province, with a total Al resources exceeding 7 × 10<sup>6</sup> tons. The ore-bearing strata in the lower Permian Liangshan Formation (ca. 275 Ma) are comprised a 3–5-m-thick bauxite layer (bauxite ore/clay) and an underlying 4–8-m-thick Fe layer (Fe ore/Fe-rich clay). The high REE contents in the bauxites can be attributed to the widespread presence of bastnäsite. The bastnäsite commonly coexists with authigenic chlorite, which formed at temperatures of 221–285 °C, indicative of a hydrothermal origin. Uranium–Pb dating of the bastnäsite yielded an age of 141.4 ± 7.0 Ma, indicating a hydrothermal overprint occurred during the Early Cretaceous, which resulted in the enrichment of REEs in the bauxites. The high contents of REEs, Ba, and P in the Cambrian Niutitang Formation black shales indicate it was a potential source of these elements for bastnäsite and coexisting barite and apatite. The deep-seated hydrothermal fluids (enriched in HF, CO<sub>2</sub>, and H<sub>2</sub>S) associated with the late Yanshanian extensional tectonic event in South China (155–123 Ma) ascended along fractures. The ascending fluids interacted with the black shales, extracting REEs, Ba, and P. When the fluids reached a certain depth, they mixed with the infiltrating basinal waters to form a mineralising fluid. The fluid then migrated towards the bauxite layers, underwent cooling and depressurisation, and precipitated bastnäsite, barite, apatite, and chlorite. We propose that a hydrothermal event led to the enrichment of REEs in the bauxites in Hunan Province. Considering the scarcity of REEs in the parent rocks of bauxites worldwide, hydrothermal activity likely has a key role in REE enrichment in bauxites.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":16336,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geochemical Exploration","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141539548","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

But individual studies that apply data mining methods to both local- and regional-scale, both sediment and whole-rock multi-element geochemical data sets are relatively scarce. Here, we applied data mining methods, including multivariate statistical analysis (principal component analysis), spatial analysis (trend surface analysis), unsupervised machine learning algorithm (<em>K</em>-means clustering), supervised algorithms (random forest and deep neural network) to both regional sediment geochemical and local lithogeochemical data from the Duolun-Guyuan prospect, in order to determine the geochemical signatures of volcanic-type uranium mineralization through characterizing: (1) representative element associations; (2) axial zonation of primary haloes; (3) element distribution patterns; and (4) crustal structures (via deep learning-based predictive hafnium (Hf) isotopic mapping). Results of principal component analysis and random forest show that samples from known ore districts (e.g., Zhangmajing and Daguanchang) exhibit a distinct combination of major ore-forming elements (U and Mo), chalcophile elements (Ag, Hg, Pb, Sb and As), rare and rare earth elements (Be, Li, La, Nb and Y), tungsten (W), bismuth (Bi), and rock-forming elements (SiO<sub>2</sub>, K<sub>2</sub>O, Na<sub>2</sub>O and Al<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>), differing from samples of both the mineralized and barren areas. The axial zonation of primary haloes in Daguanchang is comprised of supra-ore haloes (rare earth elements, Th, Nb, Zr, Hf, Ga and Rb), near-ore haloes (U, Mo, Pb, Zn, Cd and Sb), and sub-ore haloes (Li, Be, Sc, V, Cu, Sr, Cs, Ba, W and Bi). Moreover, trend surface analysis shows that in the study area, the spatial distribution pattern of the supra-, near-, and sub-ore elements forms a northwesterly alignment, with the supra-ore elements concentrated in the southeast, the sub-ore elements in the northwest, and the near-ore elements in between. Finally, deep learning-based predictive hafnium (Hf) isotopic mapping reveals that the Duolun-Guyuan prospect is dominated by negative mean zircon ε<sub>Hf(t)</sub> values ranging from −17 to 0, except for some local areas in the west and southwest of Duolun and the north of Weichang.

However, the reconstruction of thermal waters mixed with cold surficial waters is complicated when the dilution factors are unknown.

Trace elements in cassiterite samples collected from twelve deposits in the Herberton Mineral Field, Australia, were measured with the use of laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS). The results were combined with published data from other tin fields, including the Andean Sn belt in South America; the Karagwe Ankole belt in Rwanda; and, from China, the Kangxiwa-Dahongliutan pegmatite field, the Youjiang basin, the Nanling belt and the Da Hinggan Range belt. Tin deposits in the dataset can be subdivided into four deposit types: 1) greisen and veins; 2) skarns; 3) Li-Cs-Ta pegmatites; and 4) polymetallic veins. The cassiterite dataset was analyzed using basic descriptive statistics, principal component analysis (PCA), and cluster analysis. Cassiterite grains from greisen and vein deposits are characterized by high concentrations of Ti (avg. 1751 ppm) and moderate concentrations of Al (avg. 97 ppm), whereas cassiterite grains from skarn deposits generally contain lower concentrations of Ti and Al. Chemical compositional boundaries in cassiterite from different deposits were recognized with cluster analysis. The relative enrichment of Al and Ti in cassiterite grains from greisen and vein deposits is likely due to greisenization reactions. The Ti vs. Al diagram can be used to differentiate between cassiterite grains derived from greisen and vein deposits, as compared to cassiterite grains derived from skarn deposits, whereas Sb vs. V diagram can be used to differentiate between cassiterite grains from polymetallic vein deposits. Zirconium and Nb concentrations are useful in identifying cassiterite grains sourced from LCT pegmatite deposits. The discrimination diagrams developed in this study through cluster analysis indicate that cassiterite grains sourced from different deposit types can be differentiated based on their trace element geochemistry and this can be a useful tool in critical mineral exploration.

The dissolved Ne in groundwater is mainly derived from the atmosphere, and its isotopic composition can correct the isotopic imbalance of <sup>3</sup>He/<sup>4</sup>He-<sup>4</sup>He. We collected thirty-eight groundwater samples from the second aquifer of the Jianghan Plain, and the isotopic concentrations and ratios of He and Ne were measured. <sup>21</sup>Ne/<sup>22</sup>Ne-<sup>20</sup>Ne/<sup>22</sup>Ne illustration is proposed to estimate the shares of atmospheric and mantle components. The <sup>21</sup>Ne content and isotopic ratios of atmospheric and mantle components are used to estimate a calculated Ne content. The difference between the calculated Ne content and the measured Ne content (∆Ne) is used to evaluate the percentage of error estimated“excess air”. The accumulation of crustal <sup>4</sup>He is corrected with the measured <sup>4</sup>He content and the percentage of error estimated “excess air”. We found the maximum percentage of error estimated “excess air” was 7.57 % occurring in the groundwater samples from the second aquifer of Jianghan Plain, and the disequilibrium of <sup>3</sup>He/<sup>4</sup>He-<sup>4</sup>He led to overestimation of the share of mantle He. The percentage of mantle He in total dissolved components is reassessed and range from 0.03 % to 0.74 %, indicating the mantle component is minor. The reassessed <sup>4</sup>He ages (1.79 ka to 21.90 ka) were uniformly older than those estimated by traditional method which only use the measured <sup>3</sup>He/<sup>4</sup>He ratio to distinguish the crust <sup>4</sup>He (1.28 ka to 18.74 ka). <sup>4</sup>He age is significantly underestimated up to 47.05 %.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":16336,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geochemical Exploration","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141478908","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It has 88 active and inactive mines only in the Spanish part and near 30 in Portugal that generate Acid Mine Drainage (AMD) pollution to the main river basins, Corona, Roxo (Portugal), Odiel, Tinto, Guadiamar (Spain) and Chanza-Guadiana (Portugal/Spain) and consequenty to the 35 acidic sampling sites, 14 in Portugal and 21 in Spain, selected for this unique study. The physico-chemical parameters of waters (EC, Eh, pH, Al, As, Cd, Co, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Pb, Zn, SO<sub>4</sub><sup>2−</sup>), acidic diatoms (%Pinacid) and diatom diversity (N°sps) were determined in the laboratory. Then, the results were integrated in a database with 16 variables and 35 sampling points to be statistically analyzed by factor and cluster analysis. In the first, for the 35 sampling sites, it showed a clear inexistence of ecological barriers, exposing how could distantly sampling points be paired together. The last, allowed the pollution–biota interaction models formulation governed by 2 factors: 1-Unrestored Mining Surfaces and 2-WFD (Water Framework Directive) exceeding limits. Dispersion diagram showed that although the unrestored mining surface increases, starting from a certain concentration of contaminants, salts begin to precipitate: the AMD process increases but the WFD does not. There are numerous works in the scientific literature aimed to define diatom-hydro-geo-chemistry interrelationships, but none that covers an entire metallogenetic province where ecological barriers could exist, conditioning the diatom species and groups evolution and distribution in an acidic (pH: 1.90–4.43) environment.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":16336,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Geochemical Exploration","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.4,"publicationDate":"2024-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141479080","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
