About this document
Santa Bárbara Cu-Au Deposit Geology by Alexander is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document describes the Santa Bárbara Cu-Au porphyry deposit in central Peru. It details the geology of the deposit including various intrusive phases and porphyries. Hydrothermal alteration zones are discussed and shown to be vertically zoned. Primary copper and gold mineralization is associated with potassic alteration of an early porphyry phase, though advanced argillic alteration overprints and destroys some of this mineralization.
