Geochendcal Prospection of Stream Sediments for Cu-Zn from Çangal Metaophiolite: Linear Discriminant Analysis
Abstract: Stream sediment geochemical prospection results for Cu find Zn in an area of 60 square kilometers within the Çangal metaophiolite, promising for copper and zinc mineralization were comparatively examined,The widespread rock unit found in investigated area are metalavas and metapelites that have similar frequency distributions for concantrations of copper and zinc. In order to separate these elements in the two lithologies, the linear discriminant analysis with its basic principles and test statistics was applied to the present data. It was detenmined that thistechnique is harmonious with geological observations particularly indicating the primary element in investigated areaand defining the relationships between the variables.
