Gossan rock, formed from the oxidation of sulfide minerals, is primarily used as an indicator of underlying mineral deposits, particularly copper, zinc, and gold. It often contains valuable minerals and can guide mining exploration efforts. Additionally, gossan can be used in environmental studies to assess the potential for acid mine drainage due to the presence of sulfides.
