ABSTRACT: This work intends to briefly report the history and application of geochemical exploration techniques in the Iberian Pyrite Belt (IPB). The use of geochemistry in IPB for exploration purposes started in 1950s. Together with geophysics, the soil geochemical exploration surveys performed over several decades were responsible for important discoveries such as Carrasco and Feitais ore-bodies. However, the...
