数十年来,经济地质学家曾反复从各方面研究硫化物的微量元素含量,特别把重点放在各种地质环境中黄铁矿的微量元素含量,并用这些元素圈定矿化分带及确定矿物的沉积环境等问题。加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚大学采用原子吸收分光光度计分析了该国科迪勒拉带三种不同类型斑岩铜矿内1ll个黄铁矿样品中的Co, Ni、Cu、Pb、Zn和Mn For decades, economic geologists have repeatedly studied the trace element content of sulphides in various aspects, with special emphasis on the trace elemental content of pyrite in various geological environments and delineated mineralization zoning and mineralization by these elements Sedimentary environment and other issues. Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometers were used by the University of British Columbia in Canada to analyze the contents of Co, Ni, Cu, Pb, Zn and Mn in 11 pyrite samples from three different types of porphyry copper deposits in the Cordillera belt
