El presente proyecto se ubica en la República del Ecuador, entre
las latitudes 3°20’S y 4°00’S, siendo desarrollado con el objetivo de
proponer targets potencialmente prospectivos, para lo cual se analizaron datos geológicos, geoquímicos y geofísicos de la zona.
A partir de la información geoquímica del proyecto PRODEMINCA (muestreo de sedimentos fluviales) y aplicando el método
de Kriging Ordinario, se generaron resultados para elementos: Ag,
As, Au, Cu, Co, Cd, Cr, Fe, Ni, Pb, Sb V y Zn, definiendo 7 zonas potencialmente prospectivas, que presentan características típicas de
sistemas tipo pórfido y epitermal. Con el procesamiento de datos
magnéticos se delimitaron zonas de susceptibilidad magnética, asociadas a los diferentes tipos de rocas y fallas regionales.
En este trabajo se definió el corredor metalogénico Machala a
partir del análisis de anomalías geoquímicas y geofísicas y de la geología estructural
The present research is located in the Republic of Ecuador between
between latitudes 3°20’S and 4°00’S, was developed with the objective
to proposing potentially prospective targets, for which geological, geochemical and geophysical data from the area were analyzed.
From the geochemical information PRODEMINCA project
(stream sediments sampling) and applying the Ordinary Kriging method, results were genered for elements: Ag, As, Au, Cu, Co, Cd, Cr,
Fe, Ni, Pb, Sb V y Zn, defining 7 potentially prospective targets were
defined, which have typical characteristics of porphyry and epithermal systems. Magnetic data processing delimited zones of susceptibility magnetic, zones were delimited, associated with different types
of rocks and regional faults.
In this work, the metallogenic belt Machala was defined by
means of geochemical and geophysical anomalies and the structural geology
