Computer-Assisted Trend Surface Mapping-An Aid to Geochemical Exploration in the Sargipalli Lead-Zinc Mine Area, Sundergarh District, Orissa (India)

Abstract

Computer-aided trend surface mapping of the Pb values from the Sargipalli Pb-Zn mineralized belt (Orissa) revealed that the fourth-degree surface (trends and residuals) is of utmost significance for prediction of further promising pay zones of the unexplored extension areas.
