Mineralogy of hydrothermal breccia cement of Humpa Leu East porphyry copper-gold prospect, Sumbawa Island, Indonesia

Indonesia is a country that has several world-class copper-gold deposits, particularly in eastern Sunda arc. The Hu’u complex has several prospects in the surface as lithocap of extensive epithermal style alteration, but some were detected associated with porphyry beneath the surface. The study focu...
