Neves Corvo. Portugal. Without accurate interpretation of the results of geophysical surveys, the world-class Neves Corvo may not have been discovered. Neves Corvo is located in the western part of the Iberian Pyrite Belt. It is the largest Cu-Zn VMS deposit in the world, with reserves of 27.7 mt Cu rich and 23.1 mt Zn rich ores.
The Smart Exploration team successfully finished their work at the Neves Corvo mine in Portugal, one of the biggest copper mines in Europe. Our Storm 7 electric seismic source was taken 600 mtrs below the surface to do seismic acquisition. For more information, please check the Smart Exploration twitter account.
The Neves-Corvo world class Iberian Pyrite Belt volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) deposit located in southern Portugal, constitutes an important Cu–Zn–Pb active mine. Seven deposits are currently known, among which the Lombador deposit alone has estimated 150 Mt of massive sulphides. The life-time of the mine is dependent on the discovery of new …
Neves Corvo is a polymetallic underground mine which produces copper and zinc concentrates by conventional milling and flotation. A tin concentrate was produced until 2004 when tin reserves were exhausted. Zinc concentrate production commenced in 2006 but was suspended in 2009 and resumed in 2010. Wood Mackenzie's asset reports are built from ...
Neves-Corvo, the jewel in the crown of the Iberian pyrite belt, was the most important massive sulfide discovery of the last three decades, both in gross value and significance to exploration for these ores. The deposit consists of five orebodies, which lie beneath a 230-to 800-m-thick succession of rocks of Upper Devonian and Carboniferous age
