Abstarct: Kal-abri copper mine is located north of the village of the Daruneh near the city of Bardeskan in Khorasan Razavi Province. Kal-abri copper zone is in the northern edge of the central Iran and in the south of the ophiolitic Sabzevar zone. The main minerals of this copper deposit are visible that include the copper oxide and Sulfide minerals. In this study, induced polarization (IP) and electrical resistivity methods are used. Collecting data using the composition of dipole-dipole and pole-dipole with 10 and 20 meters electrode spacing has been carried out. In this study, a number of 1178 points has been implemented in six survey lines in Kal-abri zone. In this research, inverse modeling has been carried out on the collected geophysical data using RES2DINV and Zondres2d software packages and the results have been displayed in three-dimensional view by Voxler software. The results using geological information have led to the identification of copper mineralization zones in the area and determination of depth and dimensions of mineralization bodies in different places of the area. baxsed on the results obtained, copper mineralization zones have high chargeability and medium to high resistivity values and are in the contact with limestone and andesite formations, and also in the contact with limestone and Pyroclastic unit or in andesitic fractures. baxsed on the results, 14 exploration drilling boreholes have been suggested in order to reach copper mineralization at depth.
