A TOTAL CONTENT X- RAY FLUORESCENCE METHOD FOR COPPER PROSPECTING

A TOTAL CONTENT X- RAY FLUORESCENCE METHOD FOR COPPER PROSPECTING 1 first-author 1 1 Chengdu College of Geology, Chengdu 610059, China Chengdu College of Geology, Chengdu 610059, China A new method is proposed to prospect copper deposits with portable XRF analyzer. The method is based on the close relation between Cu and the chalcophile elements or some other elements in the geochemical anomalies of a Cu deposit. Applications of the technique in Northeast China are presented.
