Mineral systems with their core of ore deposits require a rare conjunction of geodynamic
settings, crustal or lithospheric fertility, crustal architecture and suitable host rocks, and …

There is an abundance of published trace element data for sphalerite, galena and
chalcopyrite in natural systems, yet for a co-crystallized assemblage comprising these base …

This paper presents evidence and arguments that carbonaceous sedimentary rocks were a
source for Au and As in sediment-hosted orogenic and Carlin-type gold deposits and …

Abstract Sediment-hosted Pb-Zn deposits can be divided into two major subtypes. The first
subtype is clastic-dominated lead-zinc (CD Pb-Zn) ores, which are hosted in shale …

Abstract Gold mineralization at Sukhoi Log in eastern Siberia is hosted in a deformed
Neoproterozoic organic-bearing and pyritic black shale and siltstone sequence that is folded …

The western two-thirds of Australia is underlain by Precambrian rocks that are divisible into
three Archean to Paleoproterozoic cratons, the West Australian, North Australian and South …

Although most economic geology research is concentrated at the deposit or mineral-system
scale for a single well-defined deposit group with a consistent metal association, there are …

Mineral deposits represent extraordinary metal concentrations that form by magmatic,
magmatic–hydrothermal or hydrothermal processes in geodynamic environments typified by …

It is quite evident that it is not anomalous metal transport, nor unique depositional conditions,
nor any single factor at the deposit scale, that dictates whether a mineral deposit becomes a …

Located in the southeastern margin of the Yangtze Block and generally interpreted as the
Neoproterozoic collisional product of the Yangtze with the Cathaysia Blocks of South China …
