Gold Exploration Using Induced Polarization and Resistivity Methods in Meyduk-Latala area

Due to having rich mineral deposits, Iran has a high standing in the world, hence prospecting and exploration of these deposits is a significant issue. The use of geophysical methods for exploration of metallic and non-metallic ores is quite common. In order to identify and explore disseminated metal and sulfide mineralization zones, induced polarization (IP) and electrical resistivity (RS) methods have an important role. In this study, we tried to recognize types and locations of anomalies using two mentioned methods. In this regard, chargeability and resistivity data have acquired by Geological Survey and Mineral Exploration of Iran (GSI) were analyzed so that in the first step, we recognized the prone area with the help of rectangle array data and in the next step, used dipole-dipole data for more detailed information. Finally, depth and trending of the gold vein were determined.
