Description |
All varieties of base metal sulphide deposits may be classified using base metal ratios viz. Copper Ratio (CR=100Cu/(Cu+Zn)), Zinc Ratio (ZR=100Zn/(Zn+Pb)) and Lead Ratio (PR=100Pb/(Pb+Cu)). Based on this ore group classification an attempt has been made to identify ore groups present in the late Archaean volcanic associated Ingaldhal Sulphide Deposit (ISD) of Karnataka Craton. Using base metal ratios (CR, ZR and PR) five distinct fields are suggested: Cu, Cu-Zn, Cu-Zn-Pb, Zn-Cu and Zn-Cu-Pb/Zn-Pb-Cu with their associated geological and geochemical characteristics. A transitional change in the ore groups is observed from the North Block (Cu rich groups; CR>50) to South Block (Zn and Pb dominated groups; CR
