Abstract

Abstract

The Iberian Pyrite Belt (IPB), partially located in the Alentejo region, southern Portugal, is known worldwide for the existence of several exploitable massive sulphide ores (e.g., the Neves Corvo copper and zinc ore) that have been supporting the activity of major mining companies for several decades. In 1944, the former Serviço de Fomento Mineiro (SFM) (currently the Laboratório Nacional de Energia e Geologia, LNEG) introduced the use of geophysical methods applied to mining prospecting with the TURAM electromagnetic method through the ABEM Company (Gomes and Silva, 1955).
