摘要

对IRI金矿进行了勘查化探和物探。进行了地质填图,采集了岩石、土壤和沉积物样品。结果显示,尼日利亚基底杂岩主要由混闪片麻岩、老花岗岩和片岩组成。区内主要岩性为硅化剪切岩和大石英脉。发现孤立的未分化片岩为母岩,可能是在一次重大地质活动中侵入的石英岩。岩石的破碎在研究区域的两个主要山脊周围留下了巨石和石英岩的碎片。除2处发现正异常外,其余岩石地球化学异常较弱,为进一步勘查目标。区内金矿矿脉突出,提示金矿成矿潜力。航磁资料的解释给出了构造特征的方位,该区的主要构造走向为北东—西南向。磁资料提取的线状体长度在46.43m ~ 1251.66m之间。该地区提取的剖面大部分在石英云母和混辉岩的地下,部分虽不明确,但有表面表现。这些磁性线可能是两种磁化率不同的岩石类型之间的接触,也可能是断层或侵入体的结构边缘。卫星解释数据显示,该地区有几个地下构造可能是金矿化的宿主。将岩石、土壤和沉积物的地球化学分析结果叠加到航磁解释资料上,建立了相似的地球化学和地球物理特征。索引术语:金矿化,航磁数据,地球化学数据,片岩带,尼日利亚

Reconnaissance geochemical and geophysical exploration for gold at Iri gold field, north central Nigeria
Reconnaissance geochemical and geophysical exploration for gold was carried out at IRI Gold field. Geological mapping was conducted and rocks, soils and sediments samples were collected. The outcome revealed rocks of the basement complex of Nigeria made up of mainly, Migmatite Gneiss, Older Granite and the Schist. The major lithology in the area is silicified sheared rocks and large quartz vein. Isolated occurrence of undifferentiated schist was found as parent material on which quartzite intruded possibly during a major geological activity. Shattering of the rocks left boulders and rubbles of quartzite all around two major ridges within the study area. The rocks have shown weak geochemical anomaly except in two locations were positive anomalies were observed and identified as target for further exploration. Gold veins are prominent in the area suggesting potential gold mineralization. Interpretation of the aeromagnetic data give the orientations of the structural features, the major structural trend in the area is NE-SW. The lineaments extracted from the magnetic data range in length from 46.43m to about 1251.66m. Most of the lineaments extracted from the area are subsurface within the quartz-mica and migmatites while some of them have surface expressions even though not clearly defined. These magnetic lineaments could be the contacts between two rock types of contrasting magnetic   susceptibility   or   edges   of   structures   that   could   be faults or intrusive bodies. Interpreted satellite data show several subsurface structures which could be hosts to gold mineralization in the area. Results of the geochemical analysis of rocks, soils and sediments were super imposed on the interpreted aeromagnetic data and similar geochemical and geophysical signatures were established.   Index Terms: Gold mineralization, aeromagnetic data, geochemical data, schist belt, Nigeria
