GRADE AND TONNAGE MODEL OF SEDIMENT-HOSTED Cu

By Dan L. Mosier, Donald A. Singer, and Dennis P. Cox

COMMENTS Tonnages are probably underestimated for deposits in Zambia and Zaire due to poor reporting. The extent to which mineralization exists between mines in Zambia and Zaire is not considered. Estimates for the deposits in Russia probably represent districts. See figs. 154-156
