Abstract

HOWZ-E-SEFID ZINC- LEAD DEPOSIT is located 17 km northeast of Ardakan town in the CENTRAL IRAN tectonic zone.Cretaceous carbonate rocks consisting of three formations including Sangestan, Taft and Abkoh are host rocks of this deposit. The Sangestan formation, the lowest unit, is composed of shale and siltstone with calcarenitic interbeded layers. This unit is overlain by ankeritic massive dolomite and dolomitic limestone of Taft formation. The Abkouh formation at the top is composed of cherty or argillaceous limestone with massive reefal limestone. Deposit includes two types of mineralization: supergene in surface and sulfides in depth. The ore minerals paragenesis is composed of galena, sphalerite, pyrite, hemimorphite, smithsonite, cerussite and barite. Two main geometries for ore body have been recognized: 1) concordant layers and lenses; and 2) discordant veins along the fractures. Grade of Ag and Cd in mineralized samples is high and they can be considered as a by- product. Cadmium shows positive and good correlation with Zn, Sb and S, but correlation between Sc and Pb is weak and negative. This can represents the substitution of cadmium in sphalerite. All accomplished investigations such as geological characteristics, mineralized facies, supergene and sulfide development, ore mineral paragenesis, texture and structures in different scales, existing alterations specially dolomitization and geochemical studies reveal that the most features of the Howz-e- sefid ZINC- LEAD DEPOSIT is a Mississippi Valley Type (MVT) deposit.
