ResumoSeveral electrical methods were applied in the exploration for quartz‐vein type chalcopyrite and auriferous pyrite deposits in the Sariyer area of Turkey. The spontaneous polarization method was found to be suitable for locating such deposits. The anomalies found by this method were tested by drilling and all of them showed sulphide masses. One of these, the Nalbant Çeşmesi anomaly, was partly developed afterwards and the geological section thus determined is in accord with the predictions based on the quantitative interpretation of the spontaneous polarization data. The sulphide mass here was found under a sterile cover of overthrusted schists. The topographic correction was of critical significance in locating this ore body.
