This article belongs to the project: "Study of the Mesozoic magmatism and its implications in the determination of a model of geological-structural exploration related to the occurrence of IOCG deposits in the Cordillera of the coast and pre-Andean plains of the Peruvian Andes" developed between INGEMMET and UNMSM. During field activities, geological mapping of zones C1 and C-2 was emphasized, identifying the presence of epithermal veins, cutting the series of intrusive outcrops of the Coasthal Batholith and volcanic of the Casma Group. The mineralization presents in these veins indicates to have multiple hydrothermal stages of qz-py ± cpy ± po (with 3 generations of qz), with zones of argillic alteration with a silice-clays (kaolinite/dickite-illite)-sericite mineralogical association, in addition having traces of alunite and pyrophyllite, laterally grading a large zone of quartz-hema...

This publication is part of the project: “Study of Mesozoic magmatism and its implications in the determination of a geological-structural exploration model related to the occurrence of IOCG type deposits in the Cordillera de la Costa and pre-Andean plains of the Peruvian Andes” by means of the framework agreement between UNMSM and INGEMMET. The location of the prospective areas was using Landsat 8 images, choosing Cerro Colorado Chico for its accessibility. The geomorphology stands out for showing outcrops of isolated hills with strong oxidation and hills. In the field stage, the geological cartography of 5 predefined zones and oriented sampling was performed. Intrusive rocks, altered porphyritic volcanic rocks, gaps, quartz veins, clays were observed. The mineralization observed was chalcopyrite, covelite, large amount of pyrite, hematite, goethite, jarosite, etc. The alteration ob...
