Epithermal in a sentence

Another advantage Radius Gold had in identifying Tropico, Smith says, is that the company was founded by Simon Ridgway, who has been focused on hot spring epithermal systems for over 20 years.

He was previously the geology manager with Sierra Metals (Bolivar Skarn plus four significant CRD/epithermal discoveries), project geologist for MAG Silver and chief geologist at Minaurum Gold.

Historic mining depths, structural controls, host rocks and vein textures support a geologic and exploration model for a composite mesothermal and epithermal vein system having mineralization that likely extends to great depth.

Limited shallow historic drilling on both projects encountered weakly anomalous gold but, importantly, was too shallow in the epithermal system to adequately test for higher-grade mineralization in the boiling zone at depth.

Mr. Smith has garnered a technical expertise in epithermal and mesothermal gold, ultramafic-associated platinum group metals, porphyry copper-gold, diamonds, unconformity-related uranium, and coal.

Netalzul is a polymetallic epithermal-porphyry system topped by one of the largest and strongest copper, molybdenum and zinc anomalies ever observed in British Columbia.

Recent drilling at Meseta proves that a shallow intermediate-sulphidation epithermal gold system exists adjacent to the recently discovered Copper Ridge Porphyry system.

Pucarini is situated in the southern segment of the Miocene Epithermal Gold Belt which is the host to large Miocene aged high sulfidation Au deposits in northern Perú including Pierina, Yanacocha, and Alto Chicama/Lagunas Norte (Figure 2).

The project contains an epithermal/mesothermal silver-gold quartz vein system exposed at the edge of a large alluvial-covered valley.

Part of the rhyolite is mineralized and appears to be related to epithermal gold mineralization throughout the property.

The Newmont program was specifically designed to test for Carlin-style deposits within the Caracol Formation which underlies the Ahuichila Formation conglomerate and did not target the outcropping epithermal breccias.

Values ranged from 0.26 to 20.4 g/t showing the typical nugget effect characteristic of narrow epithermal gold vein occurrences.

Cross sections for both capture and fission reactions often have multiple resonance peaks at specific energies in the epithermal energy range.

However, in a partially moderated reactor with more interactions of epithermal neutrons with heavy metal nuclei, there are greater possibilities for transient changes in reactivity that might make reactor control more difficult.

The sample can be placed in an irradiation container which is then placed in the reactor; if epithermal neutrons are required for the irradiation then cadmium can be used to filter out the thermal neutrons.
