Abstract

"The paper describes Rio Blanco like a virgin porphyry copper discovery, located in Perú along the Ecuador border at the north end of a belt of copper systems that includes porphyry Cu-Mo, porphyry Cu-Au and highsulfidation types.Rio Blanco is a porphyry Cu-Mo system containing low Au and As. The presence of andalusite, diaspore and pyrophyllite, intense QSP alteration and absence of potassic alteration indicate a shallow level oferosional exposure."
