Heavy and Precious Metal Exploration using with Geophysical Methods in The Ophiolitic Rocks Exposed Hatıp-Çayırbağı (Meram-Konya) Region

2012 
In this study, ore deposit investigations were realized using with the geological, geophysical and geochemical methods on the ophiolitic rocks exposed in Hatip-Cayirbagi (Meram-Konya) regions. In the Hatip-Cayirbagi Region Upper Triassic- Upper Cretaceous Lorasdagi Formation and Midostepe Formation make the basement of the unit. These units were covered Upper Cretaceous Hatip Ophiolitic Complex and Cayirbagi Ophiolite. Upper Miocene-Lower Pliocene Ulumuhsine Formation unconformably lies over the older units. All of these units covered unconformably by the Quaternary-Actual Alluvials. Chemical analysis such as major oxides (SiO2 , Al2 O3 , Fe2 O3 , MgO, CaO, Na2 O, K2 O, TiO2 , P2 O5 , MnO, Cr2 O3 ), trace elements (Co, Mo, Cu, Pb, Zn, Cd, Sb, Sn, Ta, W, Zr, Ag, Au, Hg, Ni, Sc) and PGM (Pd, Pt) and rare earth element (La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb) were perform on the rock and plaser samples derived from the area. Working in the fields of electrical geophysical methods on the basis of rezistivity levels / units tried to be determined. Hatip-Cayirbagi region four-point was measurement. As a result of the data obtained in Hatip regions in the levels of the silica, magnetite and chromite-rich serpentinite formations have been identified.
