Distribution Analysis of Sulphide Mineral (Pyrite) Using Induced Polarization Method in Libureng, Bone, South Sulawesi

Abstract

Sulphide minerals are any member of a group of compounds of sulphur with one or more metals. Some of these sulphide minerals are economically important. This study used induced polarization method to identify distribution and mineralized zone of sulphide mineral (Pyrite), in Libureng, Bone Regency, South Sulawesi. The data processing yielded resistivity value, percent frequency effect (PPE) value, and metal factor (MF) value which were then used to produce 2-D and 3-D section model. Based on the data interpretation, an anomaly linked to pyrite deposits was seen in four trajectories with resistivity value < = 50, PFE = > 3%, and MF > = 150, deposited in hydrothermal alteration zone, sericite zone.
