The Sungun porphyry copper deposit (PCD) is located in East Azarbaijan, in the NW of Iran. The Sungun porphyries occur as stocks and dikes ranging in composition from quartz monzodiorite through quartz monzonite. Four types of hypogene alteration are developed at Sungun, potassic, phyllic, propylitic and argillic. Based upon their phase content, four types of fluid inclusions are common at Sungun (1) vapor, mono-phase (2) vapor-rich, two-phase, (3) liquid-rich twophase, and (4) multi-phase. Halite is the principal...

Sungun Porphyry Copper deposit is located 75 kilometers northwest of Ahar and 130 kilometers northwest of Tabriz. In order to model the deposit and estimate its reserve, 31068 input data gained from 152 boreholes were used. Cu grade was selected as the major regional variable on which the present research has focused. All of the available data were changed to 12.5-meter composites so that statistical equalization could be reached. Studies indicated that Cu input data had single - population characteristics. To car...

The Sungun porphyry copper deposit is located 75km northwest of Ahar in northwestern Iran. The Conditional Simulations, based on 31068 XRF rock analysis from the Sungun porphyry copper deposit have been applied to Geostatistical simulation. Statistical investigations reviled that, the Cu input data had single-population characteristics and obeyed a lognormal model. To carry out this geostatistical investigation, a spherical model was fitted over an empirical variogram. Plotting the empirical variogram in different...
