Resumo: | Abstract The transition zone between the Archean blocks, Jequié and Itabuna-Salvador-Curaçá, in the county of Laje, Bahia, Brazil, is potentially important for iron ore deposits of economic interest. This research investigates one of the eighteen anomalies defined by a previous integrated interpretation of geological and airborne gamma ray spectrometry and magnetic data in this transition zone. Its choice resulted from being located in an area with intense transcurrent shear and from the occurrence of pebbles rich in magnetite. Because of paucity of surface geological information, a ground-based geophysical survey added valuable information for the definition of a drilling program in the area. The survey consisted of two parts and followed up the aforementioned previous integrated interpretation of the Valença sheet. The first part consisted of one gravity and magnetic profile, which indicated a favorable site for additional investigation. The second part consisted of a detailed survey in the selected area with gravity, magnetic, and VLF-EM. The interpretation of the data of the geophysical methods allowed to delineate two zones in the area, both located at magnetic anomalies, gravity highs and relatively conductive parts. The two zones have a high potential for iron ore, because they present significant and correlated anomalies. |
