- Type
- Copper-molybdenum porphyry and veins
Armenian copper deposit sampled by the Institute of Geological Sciences of the Armenian Academy; age and type from Table 3 of Meliksetyan and Pernicka (2010): Late Oligocene to Neogene. Indicative coordinates.
206Pb/204Pb isotope ratio, no unit Values of the same system
Standard : NIST SRM 981
| Value | Range | n | Mineral or matrix | Source |

| 18.7923 ± 0.198 | 18.5881 / 18.9726 | 4 | copper ore (chalcopyrite, malachite, azurite) and galena or galena-chalcopyrite concentrate Mean and standard deviation recalculated from 4 samples, Table 6 (FG-010095, FG-020523, FG-020516, FG-020517), read from the page image. One of the three deposits where galena or a galena-chalcopyrite concentrate was analysed to test lead homogeneity between minerals. Some samples from this deposit have negative model ages (the authors' "radiogenic" lead). Mine still worked at the time of the article. | Meliksetyan and Pernicka (2010), Geochemical characterisation of Armenian Early Bronze Ag… |
