Abstract

Systematic prospection for copper and zinc was carried on using applied geochemical methods. After evaluation of geochemical data, stream sediment survey, follow-up soil survey and detailed soil and primary rock grid surveys were carried out. All the samples collected were analysed for copper and zinc. The statistical parameters for these elements were calculated and distribution maps were prepared using probability methods. Trend survey analysis was then carried out using the soil sample results. TSA was applied mainly to three different data sets (1) original copper and zinc values; (2) copper/zinc ratios and (3) residual li values. The results of TSA are shown on contour maps. -from Authors
