An Ore Adit Planning With The Help Of Three Dimensional Ore Body Modeling: A Case Study From Çulfa Çukuru Pb-Zn-Cu-Ag Deposit, Sinan Akiska, Elif Akiska Dec 2018

An Ore Adit Planning With The Help Of Three Dimensional Ore Body Modeling: A Case Study From Çulfa Çukuru Pb-Zn-Cu-Ag Deposit, Sinan Akiska, Elif Akiska

Bulletin of the Mineral Research and Exploration

Çulfa Çukuru Pb-Zn-Cu-Ag mineralization has occurred along the metamorphic and metamorphic-dacitic volcanic rock contacts of the Sakarya zone on the Biga Peninsula. The base metal mineralization (Pb-Zn-Cu-Ag±Au) developed along the contact and fracture planes of these rocks can be observed as veins, lenses and disseminated ore geometries in the calc-silicate rock assemblages. Base metal mineralizations are mainly controlled lithologically and are generally associated with recrystallized limestones. In this study, the surface and the subsurface were modeled using the topographical data and the geochemical data (%Pb and %Zn) collected from 42 boreholes of Çulfa Çukuru which is located 20 km South-Southeast …


Modeling Of Flood And Post-Flood Ocean Floor Cooling, William J. Worraker, Richard Ward Jul 2018

Modeling Of Flood And Post-Flood Ocean Floor Cooling, William J. Worraker, Richard Ward

Proceedings of the International Conference on Creationism

Given that the earth’s ocean basins are geologically young, few areas being older than early Jurassic, and that most creation scientists regard Jurassic rocks as Flood deposits, these basins must have formed during and since the Flood, i.e. within no more than 4500 years. This paper represents a first attempt at modeling ocean basin formation by the separation of the continents and cooling of mantle material emplaced at spreading centres well within that limited time. We use a spreadsheet-based finite difference solution of the heat diffusion equation applied to a simple widely-used plate model of ocean lithosphere formation. Having verified …
