Abstract

This paper is devoted to geological and geophysical exploration of Sarband graphite deposits in Markazi province of Iran includes Khanadarreh Bala and Vesmestan deposits. Geological methods include trenching and drilling test pits and exploratory holes, sampling and analyzing with XRD and chemical analysis. This method show that Khanadarreh Bala deposits has purer graphite than Vesmestan and hosted in schistisited rocks and has higher continuity than Vesmestan deposit. Geophysical methods include SP ,mise-a-la-masse and resistivity measurements ,confirm geological exploration results and because of increasing resistivity beyond of 30m in north of Khanadarreh Bala deposit, showed that this deposits located in shallow depths up to 30m. Also in Vesmestan deposit, resistivity increases with depth, but due to less continuity of this deposit, increasing of resistivity with depth isn’t continuously.
