Abstract
Logistic
regression
analysis
and
classification
methods
using
decision
tree
analysis
were
used
to
generate
two
quantitative
mineral
potential
maps
for the
Lake
Ambrose
area
(NTS
12A/10)
of
central
Newfoundland.
The
response
variable
consisted
of
47
surface
mineral
occurrences
plus
49
randomly
selected
sites
representing
nonmineral
occurrences.
Mineral
deposit
models
and
regional
exploration
methods
were
used
to
choose
a
set
of
predictors
consisting
of
geology
,
fault
proximity
,
till
and
lake
sediment
geochemistry
, and
surficial
geology.
A
spatial
weighting
function
predictor
was
developed
to
account
for the
clustering
of the
mineral
occurrences.
