The Timok deposit is part of the Brestovac-Metovnica exploration permit. Timok deposit geology and mineralisation. The Čukaru Peki (Upper Zone) is a high-grade, high-sulphidation (HS), epithermal deposit associated with an …
Much of the world's economic gold, silver, copper and lead-zinc deposits are found in vein (lode) deposits. ... as the price of gold has soared and mining technology has improved, so deposits with larger tonnages and lower grades can be mined economically. ... There are two basic types of vein deposits: epithermal and mesothermal.
Chapter 7 Epithermal Gold Deposits of China—An Overview Author(s) ... such that only deposits investigated by professional exploration/mining groups report significant resources. Most deposits are mined on an ad hoc basis by individuals or groups lacking technical resources. Consequently, there is an excellent opportunity for discovery of new ...
This is not surprising since epithermal gold deposits are typically high grade, but small. Richfield Ventures along with SilverQuest Minerals and GeoMinerals were purchased by New Gold in 2011 in …
Estimated depths of formation for epithermal deposits are typically <~1 km. In general, epithermal precious metal deposits are estimated to form at shallower depths compared to epithermal base metal deposits, consistent with the observation that epithermal deposits tend to become more base metal-rich with increasing depth.
Introduction. New Zealand has a history of significant Au and Ag production from epithermal deposits since the 1860s, and epithermal deposits continue to be one of the main mineral deposit types sought by the exploration industry on the North Island.
Telstra Hill is an intermediate sulphidation epithermal gold dominant deposit, hosted within the same rhyodacite volcanic and volcaniclastic sequence that hosts V2 and Mt Carlton United. The gold mineralisation at Telstra Hill has been defined over 380 m E-W with N-S extents ranging from 150 – 250 m.
Although they are a product of the same igneous system, low sulfidation epithermals gold deposits are very different from high sulfidation. In low sulfidation
These features were noted at the Gosowong deposit by Gemmell (2007) and are being developed as possible vectors for exploration in the Gosowong goldfield. CODES Introduction The Kencana Au-Ag low sulfidation epithermal deposit is located in the Neogene magmatic arc of Halmahera, East Indonesia (Fig 1a)
This is a 16-block poster on the styles of epithermal deposits, their characteristics, and exploration, based on our understanding in 1996 (i.e., now parts are out-of-date).
Epithermal gold-silver deposits are vein, stockwork, disseminated, and replacement deposits that are mined primarily for their gold and silver contents; some deposits also …
The Brett epithermal gold property, located west of Vernon in southern B.C., is one of Ximen's prime exploration assets. Exploration to date has identified a low-sulphidation epithermal gold (+ silver) deposit with …
This paper summarizes the characteristics of epithermal gold deposits and discusses potential ore deposition mechanisms. Epithermal deposits mostly form at …

Silver to gold ratio in the ore is approximately 1:1. The Toguraci low sulphidation epithermal gold vein deposits are located 2 km south west of the Gosowong mine and form part of the Gosowong Goldfield. The vein structures at Toguraci are narrow with horizontal widths typically ranging between 0.1m and 5m.
Abstract The results of studying the epithermal deposits of Kamchatka, one of the most promising gold-mining provinces of the Russian Federation, are generalized. The deposits are divided into acid–sulfate (Ac-Sul) and adularia–sericite (Ad-Ser) types (Heald et al., 1987). The disadvantages of the scheme, which is the most popular in the …
All hydrothermal deposits and prospects are located within a single island-arc terrane, and predominantly within an individual mapped subterrane, thus constituting a metallogenic province (Petrascheck, 1965).There are a variety of known hydrothermal deposits, with the most notable discovery being a gold-rich, sulfide-poor epithermal deposit, now in …
Nearly all epithermal ore deposits that show a relatively close relationship to thermal springs fall into four major groups: Quicksilver (and antimony), manganese (and tungsten), gold-silver, and fluorite.
Epithermal mineralization is an important metallogenic criterion for volcanogenic belts of varying ages. We show that epithermal high-sulfidation deposits are shallow formations in volcanogenic belts, with low-sulfidation deposits being formed at the subvolcanic level and the intermediate between the two types being the deepest …
Although they are a product of the same igneous system, low sulfidation epithermals gold deposits are very different from high sulfidation. In low sulfidation the main control for Gold deposition, is fluid boiling – caused by a drop in the confining pressures the fluid approaches the surface. This below is an image of a simple ...
Porphyry and epithermal mineral deposits form large economic ore bodies that provide the global economy with copper, molybdenum, gold, silver and other byproducts (Re, Te, Se). They form in the upper crust and are related to sulfur- and water-rich intermediate to silicic magmatic sources of hydrothermal fluids that move upward and produce extensive …
Mineralisation at the Chassoul deposit is of the low sulphidation epithermal gold vein type. Deposit formation takes place largely on felsic, subaerial volcanic complexes in extensional and strike-slip structural bodies.
Epithermal deposits represent a significant category of gold occurrences, with their subsurface structure playing a key role in reserve assessments. Fujian Province, characterized by extensive Mesozoic volcanic activities, stands out as a noteworthy region for shallow hydrothermal mineralization in China. This paper focus on the Youxi area …
Epithermal deposits are important sources of gold and silver that form at <1.5-km depth and <300°C in high-temperature, mainly subaerial hydrothermal systems.
DOVE is a major manufacturer of Mobile, Portable and Stationary Hard rock Gold mining equipment, designed for highest recovery of Gold, Platinum, Silver, Manganese, Zinc, Nickel, Tin, Lead, Zircon and other metals contained in hard rock deposits (Primary deposits) and quartz rocks.. SPEEDMINER ® Mobile Hard Rock Plants are fully …
In the group of arc low sulphidation gold deposits the term epithermal is only incorporated in the epithermal quartz gold-silver deposits, which occur at highest crustal levels most removed from inferred intrusion source rocks, while the adularia-sericite epithermal gold-silver deposits are described above as rift low sulphidation.
Research in the past two decades on epithermal gold and silver deposits has led to the recognition of three principal varieties—volcanic-rock-related adularia-sericite (illite) …
