Abstract

At the Tangse porphyry-copper prospect, rutile in thick soil reflects the distribution of the quartz-sericite and biotite-chlorite zones of hydrothermal alteration at depth.Detection of rutile in the samples is not simple, but studies of rutile distribution may nevertheless be a cheap exploration method for tropical porphyries.
