銅店鑛山의 붉은등 鑛體의 成因에 관한 硏究 = A study on red hill copper deposits of the Dongjom mine

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The Red Hill deposit of the Dongjom Copper Mine is the most promising deposit of the mine and under intensive exploration at present although there are eight more deposits of vein type.
With total 2160m drilling of 9 holes completed and 400m drilling on two holes underway, the nature of the Red Hill deposit has come more clear. The copper content in the whole ore body is meager so far as the exploration done up to present indicates, but there are evidences that mineralization covers all over the granodiorite cupola at the Red Hill area.
The petrological work and assay on the samples taken by the writers indicate that granodiorite rocks can be divided into fresh zone and alteration zone. Alteration zone consists of potassic and argillic zones accompanyied by silicification zone on basis of Lowell and Guilbert model. Argillic zone has closely related with a mineralization in the Red Hill deposit.
It has been cleared that the alteration acompanyied with the mineralization took place not only along vertical fissures but also in the irregular lateral zone, the nature of which is unknown.
Judging from the results of exploration and petrochemical study on the Red Hill deposit which is imbedded in a southern part of the granodiorite cupola, it can be concluded by the writer’s opinion that the Red Hill deposit is possibly a porphyry copper deposit, because the shape of the ore body, mineral zoning and paragenesis and wall rock alteration resemble to those of typical porphyry copper deposits.
It is the writers’ opinion that more exploration work is required so as to evaluate the deposit.
