Abstract High arsenic (As) contents in groundwater were found in the Bafgh area in central Iran and chosen for hydrogeochemical study. A total of 20 groundwater samples were collected from existing tube wells in the study areas in 2013 and analyzed. The water chemistry is predominantly of Na–Cl type, with concentrations of dissolved As in the range between 0.9 and 74.7 μg/L. The chondrite-normalized rare earth elements patterns exhibited a flat profile, positive Gd anomaly with a predominance of light rare earth elements (LREEs) over heavy rare earth elements (HREEs), suggest that they originated from the same source. The metals in the groundwater of the region have a geological origin.

Specific Element

Principal component analysis (PCA) is a sufficient way for finding the groups of correlated features. In geochemical exploration of precious metals, it helps to cluster the elements. Especially for rare earth elements (REEs), because of multiplicity of parameters, the proposed method helps to have a better interpretation. Geochemical exploration programs aim to find the hidden information about specific element(s), its abundance, its behavior and its relation with minerals and some other elements. REEs are a group of elements with same chemical behavior. However, some chemical characteristics of light rare earth elements (LREEs) and heavy rare earth elements (HREEs) are different. In this study, relationship between these elements was investigated by applying PC analysis method in Kiruna-type iron ore deposit of Se-Chahun in Central Iran. The four first PCs covered the most variances of the REEs. All the elements showed a correlation together with exception of La, Ce, Nd, Yb and Y. Results of PC analysis are related to the anomaly of Rare earth elements. It can be concluded that in anomalous areas, loadings of the principal components are affected by variance and anomalous content of the elements.

The present study was conducted to determine different geochemical anomalies of rare earth elements (REEs) using a combined approach of stepwise factor analysis (SFA), sequential Gaussian simulation (SGS) ,and concentration-area (C-A) fractal modeling based on surface lithogeochemical samples obtained from the Esfordi phosphate mine (Central Iran). The Esfordi mine is one of the important mines in Bafq metallogenic zone due to average and maximum grade of 0.5 and 1.7%, respectively for REEs. According to SFA operation in two steps, the REEs were placed in the first factor of the second stage (F1-2). Then, the SGS method and C-A fractal modeling were performed on F1-2 factor scores for classification of anomalies. Log-ratio matrix was used to evaluate the correlation of these results with anomalous lithogeochemical samples, as well as to determine the relationship of anomalies with rock types and mineralized units and finally, to validate the results of SGS-fractal modeling. The results confirmed an appropriate correlation between F1-2 anomalies and high-concentration in further rock samples. The main anomalies were found to have good correlation with apatite-iron unit and in general with other apatite-bearing units based on overall accuracy values. The apatite-bearing units with high values of REEs were located in northern and central parts of the mine. The results of combined approach of SFA, SGS, and C-A fractal modeling showed that this hybrid approach can be useful in determining anomalies with proper accuracy.
