The main purpose of this study is processing of raw data by factor analysis method and having interpretation and integration them by geological, alteration and mineralization data. The distinctiveness of third factor of factor analysis for Au, Mo and W and the coincidence of third factor anomalies by gold, high primary sulfide bearing area, secondary iron oxide and sericitic and silicic alterationrevealed that the third factor of factor analysis is the agent of mineralization in the study area. The suitable tectonic setting, shallow depth intrusiveswithintermediate composition, calc-alkalineand oxidant magmatism, anomaly of gold and disseminated mineralization in thehost rock and sulfide veinlet accompanied byabundant secondary iron oxide providedproperconditions for porphyry and epithermal type gold mineralization in the study area.

Azna tungsten (copper) ore occurrence is located 2 km west of Azna, in Lorestan province. The region is placed in Sanandaj-Sirjan structural zone of Iran, at the complex deformation sub-zone. In this area, tungsten-copper mineralization occurs as stratiform-stratabound in mylonitic meta-rhyolite and semi-pelitic country rock within upper Triassic volcano sedimentary sequence. The sequence consists of meta-rhyodacite, amphibolite (basic meta-volcanic), black schist, meta-rhyolite and pelitic schist with a predominance of volcanics over sediments. Ore mineral textures cover a wide variety from laminated, disseminated, choloform, bounded to open space filling. Mineralization occurs in several stages concentrated through regional (medium to high grade facies) metamorphism, folding and mylonitization of shear zone (ductile) and fractures of brittle deformation events. In this ore occurrence, metamorphism and deformations process had confused detection of proximal or distal mineralization. But base of comparison of Azna tungsten mineralization with both typical proximal on Felbertal and Austroalpine and distal on Broken Hill and Kleinarltal tungsten mineralizations has shown that they are more similar to the proximal mineral deposits.

Abstract
Two cases of tungsten-copper vein-type mineralization have been studied in the Nezam-abad and Deh-hossein areas, in southwest of Shazand. The hydrothermal quartz-tourmaline mineralized veins have different host rocks (biotitic-granite and meta-sandstone). Considering similar ore metals (tungsten-copper-tin-lead-zinc) ...

Two cases of tungsten-copper vein-type mineralization have been studied in the Nezam-abad and Deh-hossein areas, in southwest of Shazand. The hydrothermal quartz-tourmaline mineralized veins have different host rocks (biotitic-granite and meta-sandstone). Considering similar ore metals (tungsten-copper-tin-lead-zinc) in the Nezam-abad and Deh-hossein areas, same mineralogy of veins (quartz-dravite) and similar REE variation patterns in the two areas, it is suggested that the Nezam-abad and Deh-hossein mineralized veins have the same origin. It means, when the Br-bearing fluids were active, they caused the quartz-tourmaline vein-type mineralization in this area. Considering the barren intrusions in the area and other mineralogical-geochemical evidences in this study, it could be concluded that tungsten and other metallic elements in the Nezam-abad and Deh-hossein ore-bearing veins have a sedimentary/metamorphic origin.
