Abstract

Wethey-Pheshy area is located 80 km north of Mandalay at Thabeikkyin Township, Mandalay Region. X-ray Diffraction (XRD) Analysis and Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) were applied in this study. Geochemical studies on the host rocks indicate that major and minor oxides compositions of metamorphicrocks show some degree of variation. CaO, MgO, FeO, TiO2 and P2O5 concentration of the metamorphic rock samples show a coherent negative correlation with SiO2 whereas Na2O is positively correlated with SiO2. The metamorphic rocks are strongly enriched in light rare earth elements (LREE) and relatively depleted in heavy rare earth element (HREE). The depleted Eu-nomalies in the chondrite-normalized REE diagrams indicate a plagioclase-depleted Eu crustal source or fractionation during magmatic differentiation. Intrusion of granitic rocks in the diopside marble caused the base metal ore mineralization and associated skarn alterations. Granite shows the sub-alkaline nature and peraluminous character. It is identified as I-type granite (magnetite series) developed in the volcanic arc setting. Hydrothermal alteration types associated with gold and skarn mineralization in the study area include calc-silicate alteration, propylitization, sericitization (argillitization) and hematization. Based on the nature and characteristics of host rocks, mineralization and alteration style and geochemical characteristics in the study area is identified as intrusion-related skarn mineralization. Common ore minerals include chalcopyrite, galena, sphalerite, pyrite, gold and Fe-oxides.

Abstract

Western Java is a part of the Sunda Banda magmatic belt. This belt is well known to be host for several gold deposits in Indonesia, the distribution of 107 Au occurrences in this area was examined in terms of spatial association with various geological phenomena. The goal of this project is to use GIS to conduct weights of evidence (WofE) model for gold mineralization in West Java, Indonesia. A Geographic Information System (GIS) is a computer system for capturing, storing, querying, analyzing, and displaying geospatial data and weight of evidence method is one of the most important datadriven methods for mapping in GIS. The method is a probability based on technique for mapping mineral potential using the spatial distribution of known mineral occurrences. Therefore this method is very useful for gold potential mapping. There are six evidences maps such as NE–SW lineaments NW–SE Lineament, host rocks, heat sources, clay alteration and limonitic alteration, have been combined using a weights of evidence model to predict gold potential in West Java. The best predictive map generated by this method defines 21.62% (9902 km) of study area as favourable zones for gold mineralization further exploration work. It predicts correctly 74 (92.5%) of the 80 model deposits and predicts correctly 26 (96.35%) of the 27 validation deposits, has 6 main 2 prospective target for future exploration are located in Bayah Dome, southern mountain, Honjie Igneous Complex and Bogor zone, Purwakarta. Bayah Dome is highest potential area for gold deposit like Gunung Pongor, Cikidang, Cirotan, Ciawitali, Cikotok destricts and other deposits. The potential area of Au occurrences in research area is associated with NE–SW and NW–SE structure/ lineaments, dominated surrounding the Tertiary intrusive rock unit and hosted in Miocene to Pleistocene lithology rock unit.

Abstract

Low suphidation (LS) epithermal gold deposits were recently found in the Paningkaban area, Central Java province, Indonesia, with more than five hundred artisanal gold miners currently operating in the area. This study is aimed to understand the geological factors controlling the gold mineralization and to characterize the alteration and ore mineralogy of the deposit. Several epithermal veins/veinlets trending N–S, NW–SE, and NE–SW are hosted by Tertiary turbiditic volcanoclastic sedimentary rocks of the Halang formation. This formation is composed of looping gradation of sandstone and siltstone units. Pre- and syn-mineralization structures such as extension joints, normal sinitral fault and sinitral fault control the gold mineralization. Fault movements formed dilational jogs manifested by NW-SE-trending en-echelon tension gash veins. Four main alteration zones are identified: (a) phyllic, (b) argillic, (c) sub propylitic and (d) weak subpropylitic. Ore minerals consist of native gold, electrum, native silver, pyrite, chalcopyrite, sphalerite, galena, arsenopyrite, cubanite, marcasite, covellite and tennantite, which are commonly associated withargillic alteration. Vein structures such as massive, swarm and low angle veins, stockwork and veins dispersed in diatreme breccia are present. Normal banded, cockade, crustiform, bladed carbonates as well as, comb and saccharoidal features are the typical vein textures. It is noteworthy that the veins are basically composed of carbonate with minor quartz at gold grades of up to 83 g/t Au. Based on the vein structures and textures, four stages of ore mineralization were developed consisting of (a) early stage (fluidized breccia and quartz vein), (b) middle stage (carbonate base metal), (c) late stage (late carbonate), and supergene stage. Gold mineralization originated mainly during middle and late stages, particularly in association with cockade, crustiform, bladed carbonate base metal veins. Based on those various features, the LS epithermal deposit in the study area is categorized as carbonate-base metalgold mineralization type.

Abstract

Arjuno-Welirang Volcanic Complex (AWVC) is one of geothermal fields whichlocated in East Java province, Indonesia. It belongs to a Quarternary volcanic arc and has potential for development of electricity. The field is situated in a steep volcanic terrain and there are only few geothermal manifestations, i.e., hot springs, fumaroles, solfataras, steaming ground and hydrothermal alteration. This study aims to classify the type and source of geothermal fluid and to estimate the reservoir condition of Arjuno- Welirang geothermal system. Data are obtained from collecting water samples including hot springs, cold springs, river waters and rain water, then they are analyzed using ICP-AES, titration and ion chromatography.All thermal waters have temperatures from 39.5–53°C and weakly acidic pH (5.2–6.5). Cangar and Padusanhot springs show bicarbonate water, formed by steam condensing or groundwater mixing. On the other hand, Songgoriti shows Cl-HCO3 type, formed by dilution of chloride fluid by either groundwater or bicarbonate water during lateral flow. All of the waters represent immature waters, indicating no strong outflow of neutral Cl-rich deep waters in AWVC. Cl/B ratios show that all water samples have a similar mixing ratio, showing they are from common fluid sources. However, Padusan and Songgoriti have higher Cl/B ratios than Cangar, suggesting that geothermal fluids possibly have reacted with sedimentary rocks before ascending to the surface. All waters were possibly mixed with shallow groundwater and they underwent rock-water reactions at depth before ascending to the surface. An estimated temperatures reservoir calculated using CO2 geothermometer yielded temperatures of 262–263 °C based on collecting of fumarole gas at Mt. Welirang crater. According to their characteristics, Cangar and Padusan are associated with AWVC, while Songgoriti is associated with Mt. Kawi.

Abstract

On the basis of the previous studies and reconnaissance survey in the studyarea covering Sangon, Kalirejo, Kokap Sub-district, Kulon Progo Regency, Special Region of Yogyakarta, it reveals some facts of the occurrence of quartz veins with massive, crustiform, comb, drusy cavity, saccharoidal, granular, and reniform/mammillated textures, the appearance of lattice bladed barite and hydrothermal breccia veins. Referring to those characteristics, the deposit type in the study area is interpreted to be low sulfidation epithermal type. This study is aimed to understand and characterize the geological condition, rock and ore geochemistry and the mineralizing fluids. The alteration and ore mineralization are almost observed in entire rock units particularly the intrusive andesite 1. Their formation is controlled by the tension fractures (NW–SE and NE–SW) which associate with sinistral strike slip faults (NE–SW), dilational jog (NNW–SSE), oblique normal fault (WNW–ESE), and predictable normal fault at the NE of study area (NW–SE). The alteration zones are developed to be silica-clay (quartz-illite-kaolinite-kaolinite/smectite), argillic (smectite-illite/smectite), and propylitic (chlorite-calcite±epidote). The precipitationof ore minerals is controlled by boiling, mixing, and wall-rock alteration, and canbe found in the quartz veins (quartz-adularia-sericite) and disseminated in the alteration zones, which their high variability is only can be found in the quartz veins, including pyrite, sphalerite, chalcopyrite, galena, marcasite, and arsenopyrite. Based on the ICPAES measurement of 5 quartz vein samples, the Cu, Zn, Pb, and As grade reach about 5,171 ppm, 8,995 ppm, 6,398 ppm, 34.1 ppm, and 1,010.5 ppm, respectively. Gold is not detected. Fluid inclusion microthermometric analysis shows Th of 242.1–257.6 °C and salinity of 1.57–3.87 wt.% NaCl equiv., which indicate a depth below the paleosurface of 384–516 m, and pressure of 101.7–136.6 bar. The ore deposit in the study area is interpreted to be a deep basemetal low sulfidation epithermal type. Gold might be depleted in this epithermal type.

Abstract

The Taku Schist, which is located in the north-east Peninsular Malaysia, is characterized by its North-South oriented elongated body. It forms part of the Indonesian orogenic build-up that was generated via the convergence of the Sibumasu continental unit and Sukhothai Arc. Subsequent petrography analyses of the metasedimentary rocks sourced from the Taku Schist revealed that their formation was attributable to the metamorphism of greenschist into amphibolite facies, which could be observed near the Triassic and Cretaceous intrusions of the Kemahang Granite. The evolutionary process of the rocks could be linked with the interactions occurring between contact and regional metamorphisms. The resulting chemical classification upon their assessment disclosed that the metasedimentary rocks of Taku Schist were made up of greywacke and shale, grouped into the quartzose sedimentary provenance, and belonged to the Continental Island Arc (CIA). This information is required for the tectonic setting discrimination purpose. It is a reflection of the episodic contractions underwent by the Taku Schist, wherein they would lead to the Sibumasu sedimentary cover along with both an accretionary wedge and the genetically-correlated Bentong-Raub melange to different greenschist. Otherwise associated with amphibolite facies, the conditions and depths of the facies were determined according to their position in relation to the upper plate of the Sukhothai Arc.

Abstract

The adsorption of CO2 on MFI (HZSM-5) and ion exchanged MFI (CaZSM-5) zeolites were studied by a temperature programmed desorption (TPD). The adsorption measurements were conducted at temperatures from 323 to 473 K at atmospheric pressure. The results showed that CO2 was adsorbed on HZSM-5 by one type of adsorption, and on CaZSM-5 zeolites by at least two types of adsorption over the temperature range studied. One was a weak adsorption probably due to interaction with the framework of ZSM-5, and the other was a stronger adsorption caused by interactions with the Ca cations of ZSM-5. The adsorption behavior for HZSM-5 was described by a single site Langmuir adsorption model but for CaZSM-5 a dual site Langmuir model was used. The TPD results indicated that the quantity of irreversibly adsorbed CO2 on HZSM-5 was undetectable.

Abstract

Thorium (Th) anomaly was found in Adang Volcanic Complexes, Mamuju Area, West Sulawesi. This element is associated with high-value elements, the rare earth elements (REE). The minerals containing Th and REE were found in veins mineralization with various types of minerals which are very difficult to identify by conventional method. This research aims to understand the distribution and characterization of Th and REE in individual minerals, using Micro X-Ray Fluorescence (µXRF) analysis and completed by Advanced Minerals Identification and Characterization System (AMICS) software. The samples were collected from vein mineralization in Hulu Mamuju Sector. The contents of Th and REE that were analyzed using X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) completed by Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS) are 11,550-74,480 ppm and 6,244.15-48,036.87 ppm, respectively. The minerals that contain Th and REE are britholite ((Ce,Ca)5(SiO4)3OH), aeschynite (Ce,Ca,Fe,Th)(Ti,Nb)2 (O,OH)6, cerite (Ce,Ca)9(Mg,Fe)(SiO4)3(HSiO4)4(OH)3, monazite (REE,Th(PO4)), thorite (Th(SiO4)), andthorutite (Th,U,Ca)Ti2(O,OH)6 associated with other minerals such as pyrite, actinolite, apatite, ilmenite, hematite, zircon and ankerite. Some minerals are uncommon minerals and are only characterized by detailed elemental mapping. The variety of minerals shows the condition of mineralization influenced by carbonatite magma and the hydrothermal process of mineralization
