The study area is located in the northern part of Takab, West Azarbaijan Province, northwest of Iran. Since geochemical explorations, especially the drainage sediments, play a very important role in finding promising areas and providing conditions for more detailed exploration. Detection and separation of geochemical anomalies from the field is one of the most important and fundamental issues in geochemical exploration. In this study, using the classical statistcs methods, anomalous values were determined. Other methods used in this study is the concentration-area (C-A) fractal method. This method is a very successful method for separating anomalies from the field due to simultaneous consideration of the frequency and spatial variations of geochemical data. Multivariate statistical analysis including principal component analysis (PCA) was used to obtain anomaly values related to determine the anomaly values. Favorable results for the methods used for this region was presented.
