The effectiveness of CNNs is closely tied to the quantity of training data available, thereby impacting the outcomes of MPM. Moreover, uncertainties arising from delineation of negative samples can compromise the reliability of MPM assessments. To deal with these challenges, we propose the utilization of an autoencoder-based anomaly detection technique for the purpose of annotating locations in an unsupervised manner. Subsequently, a CNN is trained using the unsupervised annotated data to generate a Fe prospectivity model within a specific region in Iran. To validate the effectiveness of the proposed method, we first perform an MPM with insufficient positive training samples that extract from the location of known occurrences. We then execute another MPM on a set of samples labeled based on the reconstruction error of an autoencoder network. When comparing the two prospectivity models, namely using augmented data or inadequate samples, it is evident that modeling with augmented data outperforms the MPM model trained with insufficient samples. This confirms the effectiveness of the adopted approach and shows that the unsupervised labeling technique proposed in this work can significantly improve the performance of the CNN in MPM.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55973,"journal":{"name":"Chemie Der Erde-Geochemistry","volume":"84 4","pages":"Article 126197"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143140118","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This presents important challenges for three-dimensional mineral prospectivity modeling (3D MPM) for deep zones with the scarcity data conditions. Transfer learning has shown promising generalization performance in tasks involving shifts in data distribution, reducing reliance on labeled samples and enhancing learning capability with limited data. In this study, we propose an approach of 3D MPM, namely DAN-CBAM, based on the deep adaptation network (DAN) augmented with the convolutional block attention module (CBAM). It theoretically can harmonize the distribution of ore-controlling features between shallow and deep zones of deposits while effectively extract critical high-dimensional features and spatial patterns. The Xiadian orogenic gold deposit was selected as a case study to validate the approach. The DAN integrates multi-layer, multi-kernel adaptation at the top layer of the CNN, resulting in improved alignment of marginal distributions across domains. Metrics for distribution similarity such as Wasserstein distance, were reduced by 0.250 and KL divergence decreased by 0.032. Additionally, the inclusion of the CBAM module led to a lower MK-MMD loss and a faster convergence rate. And the DAN-CBAM model achieves superior prediction accuracy (0.85) compared to traditional deep neural network (DNN) models (0.81). These highlight CBAM's effectiveness in enhancing the model's ability to capture spatial similarities in mineralization. Furthermore, the area under the curve (AUC) value of the DAN-CBAM model (0.869) significantly outperforms traditional machine learning methods, including CNN (0.786) and Random Forest (0.703) models, underscoring its superior predictive efficiency in 3D MPM for deep mineralization. Therefore, the proposed DAN-CBAM model is promising to be applied in the 3D MPM, in particular for the deposits with different mineralization distribution regularities in space.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":55973,"journal":{"name":"Chemie Der Erde-Geochemistry","volume":"84 4","pages":"Article 126189"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2024-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143140137","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most of the Pb-Zn-Cu deposits in the region are located near granitoid intrusions within metamorphic rocks, and they are typically classified as skarn-type ores associated with granitoids. However, no relationship has been determined between the Başçatak prospect and any granitoid outcrop. This raises the question of whether the Pb-Zn-Cu mineralization in the region is related to granitoids or if magmatic processes remobilized pre-existing mineralization. Observations from field studies suggest that mineralization in the Başçatak prospect is a stratiform type, metamorphosed occurrence that might have occurred earlier than the granitic intrusions. The geochemical data indicated that the granitoids have low-grade, subeconomic Cu potential and no Zn productivity potential, supporting these observations. Geophysical data also show that there is no intrusive body beneath this prospect. Granitoid-related deposits (Karapir - Ortaköy and Akçakışla) exhibit two distinct occurrences around the contact between the granite and the surrounding metamorphic rocks. The first type of occurrence (O-1) is formed at the contact and contains magnetite, pyrrhotite, and chalcopyrite. The second type of occurrence (O-2) is located outside the contact and is rich in sphalerite and galena. Both O-1 and O-2 contain skarn minerals along with ore minerals. The δ&lt;sup&gt;34&lt;/sup&gt;S values of sulfide minerals from the deposits range from −0,7 to 7,5 ‰ (V-CDT). These values overlap with those of both magmatic sulfur and reduced sulfur from seawater-dissolved sulfate, making it difficult to suggest a sulfur source without additional data. Lead isotope compositions of the galenas from all deposits plot above the average crustal growth curve, suggesting an upper crustal and orogenic source similar to Western Mediterranean and Türkiye type materials described in the literature for the lead, source in different time intervals. Furthermore, Pb isotope geochemistry suggests a contemporaneous age with the host metamorphic rocks (Carboniferous – Lower Permian) for the Başçatak prospect. These results support observations indicating a &lt;em&gt;syn&lt;/em&gt;-genetic formation for the Başçatak prospect. The age range of granite-related deposits forms two sub-groups:105–77 Ma and 61–50 Ma corresponding to the Upper Cretaceous and Paleocene transition. These data indicate that that the galenas were formed in two different stages in these mineralizations. Stratiform mineralization in the Başçatak prospect likely formed either through exhalative sedimentary processes by hydrothermal fluids or through chemical sedimentary processes under reductive conditions in a marine environment during metamorphism.
