Ban Lim area in Cao Bang province has proposed a high potential of lead-zinc resources, which have occurred in different rocks of geological formation. The paper-based on collecting, synthesizing, and geological processing data. In addition, mathematical methods were also applied to recognize studied objects of the exploration process using a quantitative description. The results how that the lead-zinc orebodies in Ban Lim area mainly occurred in lens-shaped and distributed in layered surfaces of the dolomitized limestone of Coc Xo formation. The average lead-zinc content of the orebodies is in a range from 3.27% to 8.33%; its coefficient of variation (Vc) is in a range from 13.71% (evenly) to 137.92% (very unevenly). Generally, the lead-zinc contents of the orebodies in Ban Lim area mainly comply with the standard normal distribution. The average thicknesses of the orebodies are in a range from 0.92 m to 6.48 m, its coefficient of variation (Vm) is in the range from 8.7% (stable) to 132.95% (very unstable). Quantitative calculation results have shown that Ban Lim lead-zinc deposit belongs to group III of deposits. For the exploration of this type of minerals, it is recommended to use a linear grid pattern. Appropriate exploration grid pattern for the 122 category reserve is (60÷80) m × (30÷40) m. These calculated results are well- documented foundations that allow suggesting a mining group of deposit and an exploration grid pattern for lead-zinc ore in Ban Lim area and other lead-zinc deposits occurring in similar geological settings.
Tam Ky - Phuoc Son area has great potential for gold mineral with 98 gold occurrences, but the evaluation of the entire gold-mineralization potential of the area is still very limited, while this is considered as a basis for planning, exploration, and mining. The paper uses an Artificial Intelligence model which has a name Random Forest to build predictive modeling of mineral perspectivity and to map the gold mineral prospect of the study area. 12 influencing factors are selected to build the dataset for model training and mapping gold minerals prospect, including Geology, fault systems (NE-SW faults, NW-SE faults, sub meridian faults, sub-latitude faults), Bouguer geophysical anomaly, a geochemical anomaly of silver (Ag), gold ( Au), lead (Pb), zinc (Zn), copper (Cu) and distance to the geologic boundary of complexes related to gold mineralization. The data which are generated from these factors are 12 fuzzy maps. This data combines with 98 occurrences’ locations to create a dataset that is used to train a model of mineral perspectivity using the Random Forest algorithm. After training the model is evaluated by validation. The results of the Random Forest predictive modeling of mineral prospects are well trained with an accuracy of 95.99% on the training set and 83.05 on the validation set, the performance of the model is excellent on both datasets with AUC of 0.993 and 0.95, respectively. Finally, a mineral perspectivity map is built using the trained model. The study area is divided into 3 types of areas: high, medium, and low prospects. The area of high prospect is 982.8 km2, covering 71% of the gold occurrences.
Typically, granitic intrusions that document the lengthy and intricate history of the magmatic-hydrothermal system are linked to tungsten deposits. Uncertainty persists about the genetic relationship between tungsten mineralization and magmatic-hydrothermal development. The primary tungsten deposit in the Dai Tu region, known as the Nui Phao deposit, has been the subject of a petrographical and microscopic examination. Tungsten mineralization in the Dai Tu area often occurs in association with the formation of skarn and greisen bodies, and it has drawn much attention from geoscientists. Based on microscopic observations, tungsten ores can be divided into three mineralization stages, namely skarnisation, greisenization, and hydrothermal stage. To examine the geochemical features of the tungsten ores, the SEM-EDS and Microscope analytical methods were performed in this study. Research results indicate that the Nui Phao tungsten deposit was formed due to different tectonic and magmatism episodes. Accordingly, the Nui Phao tungsten deposit is relatively complicated with the multi-sources of ore components. Most of the tungsten ore was accumulated in association with the metasomatism between the Ordovician-Silurian carbonate-terrigenous sedimentary rocks of the Phu Ngu formation and the Cretaceous two-mica granite of the Pia Oac complex. The research results indicate that tungsten resources obtained at levels 122 and 333 are about 227.6 thousand tons. Moreover, the hydrothermal alteration and metasomatism in the study area are influenced by at least three metasomatic episodes, including skarnisation, greisenisation, and the late hydrothermal alteration of medium to a low temperature that is genetically related to fluorite-polymetallic mineralization.
Tamgiang-Bachma area (about 1600km2) is located in Thuathienhue province, which has many outstanding values comprising geological heritages. The results show that the area has high geodiversity. Within the area, 115 geosites have been established and they can be classified into 8 groups as follows: (1) Paleontology, (2) geomorphology and landscape, (3) paleoenvironment, (4) rocky, (5) stratigraphy, (6) economic geology, (7) structural geology, and (8) geological history. The Geological heritage can initially be divided into 3 categories, including: (a) International (5 geosites), (b) National (41 geosites), and (c) Local (69 geosites). In particular, the Tam Giang-Cau Hai largoon, the sandbars covering outside of largoon and Bach Ma Mountain are considered as unique areas of geo-diversity are highly evaluated as importantce for sience, education and geotourism.
