Reconnaissance geochemical survey of the Farah Garan-Kutam mineral belt, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Reconnaissance geochemical survey of the Farah Garan-Kutam mineral belt, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Wadi-sediment samples were collected from 450 sites in a 580-km2 area (sample density 1.5 per km2) as part of an exploration program designed to assess the mineral potential of the Farah Garan - Kutam mineral belt and to evaluate mineralization at the Farah Garan ancient working (DGMR Project 3.03.10). Demagnetized panned-concentrate and sieved minus-80-mesh fractions were prepared from...

An evaluation and geochemical survey of the Farah Garan East Prospect, Southeast Asir, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia An evaluation and geochemical survey of the Farah Garan East Prospect, Southeast Asir, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
The Farah Garan East prospect (MODS 4886) is located in the southeastern part of the Precambrian Arabian Shield of Saudi Arabia, about 15 km east-northeast of Zahran Al Janub and 1 km northeast of the ancient mines at Farah Garan. Ore minerals at the Farah Garan East prospect are pyrite, tennantite, galena, and sphalerite. These are sparsely and erratically distributed in west-dipping...

Hamdah ancient gold mines, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Hamdah ancient gold mines, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
The Hamdah prospect is a 1.5-km2 area that includes ancient mine workings 15 km southeast of Hamdah in the southern Arabian Shield. The workings cluster at a gently dipping thrust contact between serpentinite (above) and hornblende schist (below) exposed in a window within the serpentinite. Aplite sills intrude the contact, and gold concentrations occur just above or below it. The...

Reconnaissance geochemical exploration for gold in the Ad Darb area, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Reconnaissance geochemical exploration for gold in the Ad Darb area, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Geochemical data were analyzed for 244 wadi-sediment samples in an attempt to locate gold exploration targets in late Proterozoic metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks in the Ad Darb area of the southern Arabian Shield. The target was gold mineralization in high-alumina alteration zones of the type that occurs in the Carolina Slate Belt, eastern United States. Such a target was sought...
