Genesis of the Guelb Moghrein Iron-Copper-Gold-Cobalt Mineralization, Mauritania

最近的勘探模型已初步确定归布莫格林铁铜金钴存款矿床为铁氧化物铜金（FeOx-Cu-Au）矿床的一个子类型。其中许多矿床是最近才发现的。因此，结论性的，普遍适用的遗传模型是稀缺的。本研究的区域性矿床相关方法将侧重于围岩岩石学、蚀变和矿石矿物学以及矿床存款的结构。地球化学、同位素和流体包裹体的工作将有助于解释成矿流体的性质和成因。了解区域P-T演化是建立区域构造模式解释构造控矿作用的前提。在存款规模，它是必不可少的检查之间的相互作用变形和蚀变风格，以获得有关流体流动模式和流体/岩石比的信息。本研究的目的是开发一个成因模式的Guelb Moghrein存款，并比较这与目前提出的模型FeOx-Cu-Au类矿床。

Recent exploration models have tentatively identified the Guelb Moghrein Fe-Cu-Au-Co deposit as a sub-type of the class of Iron-Oxide Copper-Gold (FeOx-Cu-Au) deposits. Many of these deposits have only recently been discovered. Therefore, conclusive, generally applicable genetic models are scarce. The regional, ore deposit-related approach of this study will focus on the petrology of wall rocks, the alteration and ore mineralogy, and the structure of the ore deposit. Geochemical, isotope, and fluid inclusion work will aid the interpretation of the nature and origin of the ore fluids. Understanding of the regional P-T evolution is a prerequisite for the formulation of a regional tectonic model that explains the structural control on ore formation. On the deposit scale, it is essential to examine the interplay between deformation and alteration style to gain information on fluid flow patterns and fluid/rock ratios. The aim of this study is to develop a genetic model for the Guelb Moghrein deposit and compare this with models currently proposed for the FeOx-Cu-Au class of deposits.
