Chapter 10 Quantum Machine Learning Algorithm for Iron, Gold, and Copper Detection in Optical Remote Sensing Data
10.1 How Copper and Gold Form in the Earth?
To comprehend how copper is created, it helps to watch how porphyry deposits—the major existing causes of copper ore—develop. In hydrothermal veins, the orebodies develop that are born in subversive magma chambers far beneath the deposit itself. In this view, the extremely high temperatures of volcanic magma generate hydrothermal veins, permitting some of the thermal energy to seepage near the higher layers of the Earth’s crust.
This is why copper is frequently initiated in the sedimentary layer, wherever sand and mud are crushed and developed a deposit of sedimentary rock on the surface ...
