Sedimentary environments research and its benefits in minerals exploration and mining
ABSTBACT: The known ore deposits on earth are being used up day by day to meet th© increasing needsof the mankind and the cost of mineral exploration and mining rises eonttntBMiily, Thus it is necessary to applynewer and more sophisticated methods for this purpose.Sedimentary environments research might reveal the genuine aspects of the mincraU/ation such as itsgeometry, its vertical and hortoantal distribution, its position and various eharacterif§tic# of different elementwhich affect the mineralization and one can quess the possible potential of it.Therefore it Is required to lmow the faciès eharacteristteg and their relationships with the mineralizationfor a sensible mining
