The deposit consists of seven neighboring mineralized veins termed Ana East, Ana West, West, Discovery, Güllü, Merkez and North Zone and is associated with an andesite (<em>ca</em> 8–9 Ma). Hydrothermal alteration from the innermost to the outermost parts of the deposit includes silicification, advanced argillic, intermediate argillic and propylitic. At the surface, quartz veins related to silicification are exposed as linear topographic relief trending mainly northwest-southeast and secondarily northeast-southwest and east-west. Deep drill core samples, including magnetite, quartz, biotite and anhydrite, imply the presence of potassic alteration in depth (50 to 970 m) possibly related to a porphyry Cu system. Ore assemblages are described as hypogene and supergene. The hypogene ore mainly includes pyrite (Py-I and Py-II) and enargite, and to a lesser extent chalcopyrite, sphalerite and marcasite. The supergene ore incorporates hematite and goethite, and minor covellite, chalcocite, malachite and native copper. Hypogene gold precipitation is associated with the mineral association of Py-II, chalcopyrite and enargite, while enargite mineral is a major host for gold (up to 600 ppm).

Our team is currently investigating the potential of unsupervised clustering analysis (CA) and hybridization with the grey wolf optimizer (GWO) in developing multi-element geochemical models using stream sediment data. To cluster the geochemical data and uncover any unusual patterns, we opted to use the K-means (KM) algorithm due to its straightforward implementation, fast computation speed, and capacity to handle the large datasets. Despite its benefits, the KM method also has notable limitations, such as the random selection of cluster centroids. This can result in higher systematic uncertainty in unsupervised geochemical modeling and longer computation times. To mitigate this concern, we have introduced a new hybrid approach, grey wolf optimizer with K-means so-called the GWOKM algorithm to enhance the delineation of multi-elemental patterns in stream sediment geochemical data. This method incorporates the grey wolf optimization algorithm with KM to optimize the identification of both anomalies and backgrounds using factor analysis and sample catchment basin modeling techniques. This approach was utilized to detect anomalous multi-elemental geochemical patterns indicative of porphyry and skarn copper deposits in the Baft area, Kerman belt, Iran. Upon comparison of the geochemical models derived from KM and GWOKM clustering methods, the latter outperformed the former, as evidenced by its higher prediction rate. The outcomes affirm the efficacy of unsupervised KM clustering analysis (CA) as a means of breaking down geochemical anomaly-background populations. Moreover, the integration of clustering methods with optimization algorithms has proven to be successful for enhancing the credibility of mineralized areas, which could be advantageous in future exploration phases. Based on the results, the GWOKM approach generates more reliable and efficient geochemical anomaly targets.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":55973,"journal":{"name":"Chemie Der Erde-Geochemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0009281923000879/pdfft?md5=c740500510a17aa2654475e19cd6607f&pid=1-s2.0-S0009281923000879-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134937295","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to the short time interval from the first formation of solids in the solar nebula to the accretion and differentiation of planetesimals and some planets, a high temporal resolution of the chronometers is essential and can be obtained in most cases only with short-lived isotope systems, particularly the decay schemes ²⁶Al-²⁶Mg, ¹⁸²Hf-¹⁸²W and ⁵³Mn-⁵³Cr. These chronometers provide highly resolved time constrains for the formation of the first solids (Ca-Al-rich inclusions or CAIs), chondrules, planetary cores, for the accretion and differentiation of planetesimals and hydrous/thermal alteration. Formation of Ca-Al-rich inclusions was restricted to the inner solar system and to a short time interval of ≪1 Ma, and marks the “beginning of the solar system”. It was immediately followed by planetesimal formation. The oldest planetesimals accreted within a few 10⁵ a after the formation of CAIs. The accretion of early formed planetesimals and their subsequent differentiation into a metallic core and a silicate mantle was a continuous process that occurred at different times in different locations of the solar nebula and extended over a time interval of at least ~4 Ma. During this time interval the accretion process may have changed from planetesimal formation via streaming instability to pebble accretion. The earliest formed bodies that still needed to settle into stable orbits could have created bow shocks in the adjacent regions still composed of dust and gas which resulted in the formation of silicate chondrules in a narrow time interval from 1.8 to 3 Ma. The chondrule forming interval was immediately followed by the accretion of the chondrite parent bodies, which did not differentiate due to their late accretion when most of the heat producing ²⁶Al had already decayed. Thus, the chondrite parent bodies are a second generation of planetesimals, but chemically they are the most primitive material preserved from the early solar system. Aqueous alteration of volatile rich planetesimals peaked at ca. 3.5 Ma and coincided with metamorphism recorded in ordinary chondrite parent bodies. The compilation of ages from different meteorites and their components demonstrates that similar accretion and differentiation processes do not follow an identical time line from dust to planetesimal formation and they do not correlate with the location in the disk. The accretion of matter into planetesimals was a local phenomenon with stochastic spatial distribution. The spatial distribution of accretion processes operating in the early solar system appears to be similar to those in some directly observable nascent exo-planetary systems.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":55973,"journal":{"name":"Chemie Der Erde-Geochemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0009281923000557/pdfft?md5=e3c832bb9ea90c5a20ff1d3d296903f4&pid=1-s2.0-S0009281923000557-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83303757","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
