魁北克省加斯佩西南部一个实例表明,用伊利石结晶度和有机质反射比方法可以寻找铜矿床。在加斯佩西南部,利用这些参数填绘了元古代末变质的沉积岩系列,这些沉积岩是许多小型多金属铜矿床的含矿层。 在该地区中部(Matapedia群),伊利石结晶度和有机质反射比值圈定了一个很长(4×50公里)的古热作用异常,这些地区包含了加斯佩西南部的大部分铜矿床。这些铜矿床与 An example from the southwestern Gaspe Québec shows that the copper deposits can be found using illite crystallinity and organic matter reflectance methods. In the southwest of Gaspé, these parameters are used to fill the metamorphic sedimentary series of Proterozoic metamorphic sediments, which are the ore-bearing formations of many small polymetallic copper deposits. In the central Matapedia group, the illite crystallinity and organic matter reflectance ratio define a long (4 × 50 km) paleo-thermal anomaly that contains most of the copper deposits in southern Gaspe. These copper deposits and
