Abstarct: Chahar-Gonbad region of Kerman is geologically located in the southern part of central Iran zone and dominantly in Uromieh-Dokhtar. Large scale exploration studies in this region in reconnaissance phase have proved some high potential areas of Cu and Au mineralization. For a more accurate study of these potentials, remote sensing and field geophysics methods were used in this paper. In remote sensing studies, an ASTER satellite image was applied and different processing technics such as false color composites and spectral ratios were implemented. Results showed argillic (and phillic) alteration in Bab-Zangoeie area surrounded by propylitic alteration. Integrating these results and previous exploration studies led to select this area for ground study and field geophysics with geoelectric method. Geophysical data in Bab-Zangoeie area of Chahar-Gonbd region were acquiesced with both induced polarization and resistivity methods by a pole-dipole array. After statistical analysis and inverse modeling of surveyed data, anomalous areas and position of deposit containing its approximate shape and depth were determined. Finally, drilling targets were proposed. Results from drilling operation have proved existence of mineralization in depth.
