Three types of primary fluid inclusions are identified in hydrothermal quartz: CO2-H2O (C-type), aqueous (W-type), and pure CO2 (PC-type) inclusions.

ادامه مطلبThe gold also occurs as native gold, petzite and hessite telluride inclusions. In Stage 2, gold was detected as invisible gold in the pyrite, galena and sphalerite, ranging from 0.01 to 0.03 wt% (100–300 ppm). Only one grain from Stage 3 had detectable gold content at 0.01 wt% (100 ppm).
ادامه مطلبIn most of these low-grade deposits, not all the gold is present as native gold grains and thus free milling, rather, most is present as invisible gold in sulfides particularly pyrite and arsenopyrite. ...

ادامه مطلبThe Wulong gold deposit (> 80 t Au) is located at the northeastern margin of the North China Craton (NCC). Gold in the most economically important quartz veins (Stages 2 and 3) is associated with a varied assemblage of Bi and Te minerals. Stage 2 is characterized by, in a temporal order, native gold-native bismuth-maldonite-hedleyite, …
ادامه مطلبAbstract—Gold and silver are capable of forming stable natural compounds with different elements. For gold 36 minerals are known: 10 in the class "Native metals, intermetallic compounds" and 26 in the class "Sulfides (selenides, tellurides, arsenides, antimonides, bismuthides)." For silver, 194 minerals are registered in the MMA, …
