Geology and origin of mineralized breccia pipes in Copper ...

The Copper Basin district, Yavapai County, contains a "porphyry Cu" type Cu-Mo deposit in which the bulk of ore mineralization appears to have been controlled by pipe structures. Mineralization is associated with a composite stock of presumed Laramide age which has intruded older Precambrian metamorphosed sediments and intrusive rocks.

Geology of the Lisbon Valley Sandstone-Hosted

2005-1-1 · In the Paradox basin, epigenetic, post-lithification deposition of copper sulfides in stratiform sediment-hosted deposits is the result of two sequential episodes of basinal fluid expulsion. The earlier fluid was a sulfur-bearing, reducing, aqueous fluid that bleached red sandstones as hematite was reduced to pyrite ( Thorson, 2004 ; MacIntyre ...

Controls on Copper-Cobalt Mineralization in Sedimentary Basins We found that the fluids responsible for mineralization in the ZCB were high-K brines, anomalously enriched in Cu, Co, Pb, and Zn. Consequently, understanding the origin of these fluids is a key factor in the exploration for comparable, basin-hosted resources worldwide.
