江南造山带黄金洞金矿床成矿机制:矿物形成环境与金成矿物理化学条件制约

黄金洞超大型金矿床位于江南造山带中段,赋存于新元古界浅变质岩系中,受控于NNE-NE向长平断裂带,金资源储量达100吨。该矿床可由南至北分为金福、金塘、杨山庄和曲溪矿段,主要矿化类型有石英-硫化物脉型、构造角砾岩型和黄铁毒砂绢英岩型。金属矿物主要发育有自然金、毒砂、黄铁矿、黄铜矿、闪锌矿、方铅矿、磁黄铁矿等;非金属矿物有石英、绢云母、方解石和菱铁矿等,其中金主要以自然金与不可见金形式存在。根据野外与镜下观察,金成矿作用分为Ⅰ石英-金-毒砂-黄铁矿、Ⅱ石英-金-多金属硫化物-白钨矿和Ⅲ石英-辉锑矿-绿泥石3个阶段,前二者为主要成矿阶段。曲溪矿段Ⅱ阶段毒砂相对不发育、而磁黄铁矿和自然金显著发育,绿泥石主要发育于Ⅲ阶段中,与辉锑矿及闪锌矿共生。根据不同矿段各阶段毒砂与Ⅲ阶段绿泥石成分,计算其温度、lgf(S_2)与lgf(O_2),可见Ⅰ阶段成矿温度与硫逸度高于Ⅱ阶段:杨山庄矿段两阶段成矿温度分别为300～378℃、260～300℃,lgf(S_2)分别为-11～-7.2、-11.9～-10.1;金塘两阶段成矿温度为240～311℃、245～298℃;金福Ⅱ阶段成矿温度上限为297℃;曲溪矿段成矿温度为268～368℃,Ⅱ阶段毒砂lgf(S_2)与Ⅲ阶段绿泥石lgf(O_2)分别为-13.2～-8.7、-50.9～-40.1。根据不同阶段矿物之间的相互关系及成矿温度与硫逸度演化特征,推断Ⅰ、Ⅱ成矿阶段伴随强烈的硫化作用,金以类质同象方式进入毒砂和黄铁矿中,形成不可见金;其中Ⅱ阶段由于成矿流体压力骤降,含金流体发生相分离作用,H2S等气体大量逃逸,导致成矿流体中硫含量骤降,加以硫化作用持续消耗流体中的硫,促进了含金络合物分解与自然金的沉淀。     

Predictive mineral discovery in the eastern Yilgarn Craton,Western Australia: An example of district scale targeting of an orogenic gold mineral system

The eastern Yilgarn Craton (EYC) is one of the world's premier gold provinces subject to over a century of mineral exploration. Prolonged interest in the terrane has led to the assembly of multiple world-class data sets suitable for testing district scale targeting methodologies. District scale targeting is concerned with identifying a mineral camp ∼60 km × 60 km in size within a prospective region or province ∼1000 km × 1000 km in size. Exploration at the district scale necessitates the development of predictive exploration models, which can be applied to large regions. Recent advances in the study of the geodynamic evolution and 3D architecture of the EYC, together with an understanding of their interrelationship with the orogenic gold mineral system, has resulted in identification of critical mineralisation processes responsible for the region's rich gold endowment. Here we describe and map these critical processes, using them as a basis for district scale targeting. We relate gold mineralisation to three temporally constrained geodynamic periods, integrated with regional hydrothermal alteration. Unlike many targeting methodologies, this methodology does not incorporate the location of known gold deposits in the analysis, yet it predicted 75% of known gold mineralisation in 5% of the area. The methodology allows critical mineralisation processes to be identified and mapped through time and space. These critical processes are mostly generic and can be applied to other granite–greenstone orogenic gold regions, such as the Abitibi in Canada. An important outcome of this work for the EYC is the identification of a number of new target areas, not known currently for significant gold mineralisation, in what is otherwise thought to represent a mature terrane for gold exploration.     

Regional structural controls of gold mineralisation,Bendigo and Castlemaine goldfields,Central Victoria,Australia

The Bendigo and Castlemaine goldfields are classic examples of structurally controlled orogenic gold deposits in the Bendigo Zone of central Victoria, SE Australia. Detailed mapping and biostratigraphic interpretation has led to a better understanding of the regional structural controls of this type of gold-quartz mineralisation. Mineralised quartz veins are hosted by the Castlemaine Group, an Early-to-Middle Ordovician turbidite succession at least 3,000 m thick. Gold deposits are controlled by low-displacement faults that are clustered into several belts (the goldfields) indicating a regional structural control. The timing of mineralisation overlapped with that of the major period of deformation including folding, cleavage development and regional faulting. The Bendigo and Castlemaine goldfields are located in an area termed the Whitelaw thrust sheet bounded by two unmineralised, high-displacement, regional-scale faults. Mapping has revealed an interrelationship between the regional-scale faults, regional structural style and goldfield location. The goldfields lie immediately west of the boundary between the upper and lower portions of the thrust sheet and are characterised by symmetric folds with sub-horizontal to synclinal enveloping surfaces, relatively low co-axial strains and moderate cleavage development. The non-gold-bearing areas immediately east of each goldfield correspond with the lower part of the Whitelaw thrust sheet and are characterised by higher non-coaxial strains, stronger cleavage and folds with wide west-dipping limbs giving rise to easterly vergent sections and steeply west-dipping enveloping surfaces. That mineralisation was an integral part of the thin-skinned style of deformation in the central Bendigo Zone is indicated by timing relationships and the interrelationship between local-scale mineralised structures and regional-scale features such as large-displacement unmineralised faults, regional variations in fold style and overall thrust sheet geometry. The work supports previous models that suggest mineralised fluids were focussed along a linked system of deep-seated faults. The primary conduits may have been major regional-scale ‘intrazone’ faults, which are inferred to sole into detachments near the base of the Castlemaine Group. It is proposed that these structures linked with minor intrazone faults and then with networks of low-displacement mineralised faults that were strongly controlled by folds. The location of minor intrazone faults was probably controlled by internal thrust sheet geometry. The distribution of gold deposits and of gold production suggests that maximum fluid flow was concentrated along the eastern margins of networks of low-displacement faults.     

The application of P–T–X(CO2) modelling in constraining metamorphism and hydrothermal alteration at the Damang gold deposit,Ghana

Orogenic gold mineralization at the Damang deposit, Ghana, is associated with hydrothermal alteration haloes around gold‐bearing quartz veins, produced by the infiltration of a H₂O–CO₂–K₂O–H₂S fluid following regional metamorphism. Alteration assemblages are controlled by the protoliths with sedimentary rocks developing a typical assemblage of muscovite, ankerite and pyrite, while intrusive dolerite bodies contain biotite, ankerite and pyrrhotite, accompanied by the destruction of hornblende. Mineral equilibria modelling was undertaken with the computer program thermocalc , in subsets of the model system MnO–Na₂O–CaO–K₂O–FeO–MgO–Al₂O₃–SiO₂–CO₂–H₂O–TiO₂–Fe₂O₃, to constrain conditions of regional metamorphism and the subsequent gold mineralization event. Metapelites with well‐developed amphibolite facies assemblages reliably constrain peak regional metamorphism at ~595 °C and 5.5 kbar. Observed hydrothermal alteration assemblages associated with gold mineralization in a wide compositional range of lithologies are typically calculated to be stable within P–T–X(CO₂) arrays that trend towards lower temperatures and pressures with increasing equilibrium fluid X(CO₂). These independent P–T–X(CO₂) arrays converge and the region of overlap at ~375–425 °C and 1–2 kbar is taken to represent the conditions of alteration approaching equilibrium with a common infiltrating fluid with an X(CO₂) of ~0.7. Fluid‐rock interaction calculations with M–X(CO₂) diagrams indicate that the observed alteration assemblages are consistent with the addition of a single fluid phase requiring minimum fluid/rock ratios on the order of 1.     

A mineral equilibria study of the hydrothermal alteration in mafic greenschist facies rocks at Kalgoorlie, Western Australia

The influx of a H₂O–CO₂‐dominated fluid into actinolite‐bearing metabasic rocks during greenschist facies metamorphism in the Kalgoorlie area of Western Australia resulted in a zoned alteration halo around inferred fluid conduits that contain gold mineralisation. The alteration halo is divided into two outer zones, the chlorite zone and the carbonate zone, and an inner pyrite zone adjacent to the inferred fluid conduits. Reaction between the fluid and the protolith resulted in the breakdown of actinolite and the development of chlorite, dolomite, calcite and siderite. In addition, rocks in the pyrite zone developed muscovite‐bearing assemblages as a consequence of the introduction of potassium by the fluid. Mineral equilibria calculations undertaken using the computer software thermocalc in the model system Na₂O–CaO–K₂O–FeO–MgO–Al₂O₃–SiO₂–H₂O–CO₂ show that mineral assemblages in the outer zones of the alteration halo are consistent with equilibrium of the protoliths with a fluid of composition X_CO2 = CO₂/(CO₂ + H₂O) = 0.1–0.25 for temperatures of 315–320 °C. The inner zone of the alteration halo reflect equilibrium with a fluid of composition X_CO2≈ 0.25. Fluid‐rock buffering calculations show that the alteration halo is consistent with interaction with a single fluid composition and that the zoned structure of the halo reflects the volume of this fluid with which the rocks reacted. This fluid is likely to have also been the one responsible for the gold mineralisation at Kalgoorlie.

新疆萨日达拉金矿床成矿流体特征及地质意义

新疆萨日达拉金矿位于西天山东段、中天山地轴北缘,是近年来望峰金矿带新发现的金矿床,规模达到中型。萨日达拉金矿床的直接赋矿围岩是前寒武纪绢云石英千糜岩和早古生代花岗岩类,矿床的形成明显受到胜利达坂韧性剪切带的控制,广泛发育黄铁矿化、绢云母化、硅化、钠长石化和碳酸盐化等蚀变。根据脉体穿切关系和矿物交代关系,可以将萨日达拉金矿分为早、中、晚三个成矿阶段。在萨日达拉金矿的石英中发育了CO2-H2O(C型)、纯CO2型(PC型)、H2O溶液型(W型)和含子矿物型(S型)四种类型流体包裹体。早期石英中原生的包裹体仅含有C型,均一温度为301.0～491.4℃;中阶段为主成矿阶段,该阶段石英中包含了所有四种类型的包裹体,其中C型包裹体占了大多数,成分为CO2+H2O±N2,盐度为0.43%～10.91%NaCleqv.,均一温度为255.8～475.0℃,由此计算主成矿阶段压力为115.1～307.5MPa,成矿深度为11km;晚阶段石英仅发育W型包裹体,盐度为1.32%～15.58%NaCleqv.,均一温度则为146.2～254.6℃。总体而言,萨日达拉金矿的初始流体具有中高温、富CO2、低盐度的变质流体特征,晚成矿阶段流体演化为低温、低盐度水溶液流体,流体的不混溶或减压沸腾作用导致了主成矿期的矿质的大量沉淀,萨日达拉金矿为中深成造山型矿床。     

胶东大尹格庄金矿床成矿流体特征与演化

胶东是我国最重要的黄金产地,也是全球成矿晚于赋矿围岩近2Ga的巨型金矿集区之一。大尹格庄金矿床位于胶西北招平断裂中段是区域内典型的超大型蚀变岩型金矿床也是胶东金矿集区内最大的金银伴生矿床。本研究在详实的野外地质调查和岩相学观察基础上对不同成矿阶段的石英中流体包裹体进行碳、氢、氧同位素测试和计算。大尹格庄金矿床热液成矿过程可分为四个阶段:黄铁矿-绢云母-石英阶段(Ⅰ阶段)、石英-黄铁矿阶段(Ⅰ阶段)、石英-多金属硫化物阶段(Ⅲ阶段)和石英-方解石-黄铁矿阶段(Ⅳ)。氢-氧同位素组成表明,Ⅰ阶段流体的δD为-84.4‰～-68.4‰,δ~(18)O为2.04‰～7.36‰;Ⅱ阶段流体的δD为-78.6‰～-69.8‰,δ~(18)O为0.3‰～4.2‰;Ⅲ阶段流体的δD为-81.4‰～-72.0‰,δ~(18)O为-3.47‰～-1.25‰。随着成矿作用进行,δ~(18)O逐渐降低。流体包裹体的碳-氧同位素分析表明,δ~(13)C和δ~(18)O分别随成矿作用的进行降低和升高。两种测试获得的氧同位素变化趋势不同,可能是由于前者是通过石英单矿物氧同位素计算得到的流体包裹体中水的氧同位素而后者测定的是流体包裹体中CO_2的氧同位素。综合分析表明,大尹格庄金矿床成矿流体主体为变质水;成矿作用过程中,断裂带强烈构造变形诱发次生包裹体的形成导致氢氧同位素组成向中生代大气水漂移。     

新疆望峰金矿床流体包裹体地球化学及矿床成因类型

江南造山带万古金矿床含金硫化物组构与金沉淀机制SCIEI北大核心CSCD

万古金矿床位于江南造山带中部,赋存于新元古界冷家溪群浅变质岩系中,受NNE-NE向长沙-平江断裂带和近EW向九岭-清水韧性剪切带联合控制,金资源量约85t。其主要矿石类型为毒砂-黄铁绢英岩型和石英-硫化物脉型,其次为构造角砾岩型。毒砂和黄铁矿为该矿床主要的载金矿物,分布广泛。金成矿作用可分为四个阶段,I为乳白色石英-绢云母-白钨矿阶段;Ⅱ为烟灰色石英-绢云母-毒砂-黄铁矿-金阶段;Ⅲ为烟灰色石英-绢云母-黄铁矿-毒砂-多金属硫化物-金阶段;IV为乳白色石英-方解石阶段。其中,Ⅱ、Ⅲ为成矿主阶段。根据成矿主阶段毒砂电子探针分析结果,Ⅱ阶段毒砂中As的含量在42.19%~44.84%之间,均值为43.42%(n=56),Ⅲ阶段毒砂中As的含量在40.08%~43.36%之间,均值为42.08%(n=19)。通过毒砂温度计相图估算出Ⅱ、Ⅲ阶段的形成温度和硫逸度分别为364±21℃、319±22℃和10^(-9.7)~10^(-7)、10^(-11.5)~10_(-8.6)。电子探针数据揭示的载金毒砂和黄铁矿中不可见金含量分别为0.01%~0.66%和0.01%~0.11%。黄铁矿Au-As元素投点分布于金溶解度曲线两侧,说明其内金主要以纳米级颗粒和固溶体金或晶格金的形式赋存;其中Ⅱ阶段黄铁矿纳米级金颗粒占比为73.33%,多于Ⅲ阶段黄铁矿(67.80%)。以上数据说明在水岩反应过程中,围岩中的含铁矿物与成矿流体中的H;S发生反应,生成毒砂和黄铁矿。伴随着强烈的水岩反应,成矿温度和硫逸度降低,成矿Ⅱ阶段至Ⅲ阶段主要载金硫化物由毒砂转变为黄铁矿,强烈的硫化作用导致金-硫络合物失稳并释放金,金以置换的方式进入硫化物晶格或以显微-超显微金颗粒的形式沉淀,形成含金硫化物;即硫化作用是导致万古矿床不可见金沉淀的主导机制。     

Tectonic setting, evolution and orogenic gold potential of the late Mesoarchaean Mosquito Creek Basin, North Pilbara Craton, Western Australia

The geology, evolution, and metallogenic potential of the Mesoarchaean Mosquito Creek Basin remains poorly understood, despite the presence of several orogenic gold deposits. The basin is dominated by medium- to coarse-grained, poorly sorted and chemically immature sandstone and conglomerates, characterised by very high Cr/Th, high Th/Sc, and low Zr/Sc relative to average continental crust. These features are consistent with the presence of significant mafic rocks in the source terrain(s), a limited role for sediment recycling, and deposition in an increasingly distal passive margin setting on the southeastern edge of the Palaeo- to Mesoarchaean East Pilbara Terrane.New U–Pb SHRIMP data on 358 detrital zircons indicate a conservative maximum depositional age of 2972 + 14/−37 Ma (robust median; 96.1% confidence). Zircon provenance spectra from conglomeratic rocks near the base of the unit are consistent with substantial derivation from the East Pilbara Terrane, but finer-grained sandstones higher in the stratigraphy appear to have been sourced elsewhere, as their zircon age spectra are not well matched by any of the exposed Pilbara terranes.The Mosquito Creek Basin was deformed before and during collision with the northern edge of the Mesoarchaean Kurrana Terrane, which resulted in the development of macroscopic north-verging folds, thrust faulting, and widespread sub-greenschist to greenschist facies metamorphism. This collisional event probably took place at ca. 2900 Ma, based on two identical Pb–Pb model ages of 2905 ± 9 Ma from epigenetic galena associated with vein-hosted gold–antimony mineralization. The metallogenic potential of the Mosquito Creek Basin remains largely unevaluated; however, the possibility of a passive margin setting and continental basement points to relatively limited potential for the formation of major orogenic gold deposits.

CO2-CH4流体与金成矿作用:以阿尔泰山南缘和穆龙套金矿为例

造山型金矿的成矿作用与 H_2O-CO_2流体有着密切的联系。然而对阿尔泰山南缘和穆龙套金矿的流体包裹体研究表明,无水的 CO_2-CH_4流体在中亚成矿域中一些金矿床中具有同样重要意义。阿尔泰山南缘萨热阔布金矿包裹体的 X_(CH_4)达0.20～0.23,穆龙套金矿的 X_(CH_4)为0.07～0.23。CH_4扩大了流体不混溶的范围,有利于对 Au 的富集沉淀。CO_2流体在 Au 成矿中的重要作用至少包括了三方面的意义,即:缓冲流体 pH 值范围、提高流体中的 Au 含量并使其维持与还原硫的络合作用进行迁移;扩大超临界流体的温度范围;增加流体不混溶的区域。CH_4的加入扩大了流体不混溶的范围,有利于对 Au 的富集沉淀。     

滇西大坪金矿床地质特征及成因初探

大坪金矿床被视为哀牢山造山带南段最典型的造山型金矿,但其诸多地质特征明显不同于国外典型造山型金矿床,而呈现出与浅成低温热液型金矿床的一致性.区域上,脉型金铜铅银矿床的产出与中酸性侵入岩及中基性火山岩密切相关.大坪金矿床形成于主要赋矿的桃家寨闪长岩侵位之后约800Ma的新生代构造-岩浆热事件中,金矿床是区域尺度伸展和转换拉伸应力体制的产物;成矿作用过程中,研究区构造动力体制发生了转换,主成矿期容矿断裂带显示为张剪性正断层性质.矿脉多(55条)、薄(0.2～0.8m)、长(200 ～ 1500m)、陡(56°～ 85°)、延深大(约700m),且近平行成带产出;矿体中Au品位高(超过10×10-6),Au/Ag低(o.1 ～o.5),且伴生Pb、Cu、Ag.矿石的充填型结构构造和矿物共生组合指示矿脉形成温度低、深度浅;矿化-蚀变样式以及蛋白石和氧化矿的出现表明成矿体系处于开放的氧化环境,成矿后保存良好.大坪金矿床这种特殊的地质特征可能与其复杂的区域构造背景及成矿演化过程密切相关,金矿床虽然具有造山型金矿的基本特征,但在成矿作用晚期,矿床浅部叠加了浅成低温热液型金铜铅银成矿作用.即大坪金矿床属于深部造山型+浅部低温热液型矿床套叠组合,成矿体系保存完整,现发现的均为浅部矿体,深部找矿潜力巨大.

Recognition of two contrasting structural-and mineralogical-gold mineral systems in the Youjiang basin,China-Vietnam:Orogenic gold in the south and Carlin-type in the north

The gold deposits in the Youjiang basin,totaling 25 Moz gold,have traditionally been thought to be of Carlintype,particularly those with extensional structural geometries in the northern basin dominated by platform sedimentary sequences.However,the structural geometries,mineralization styles and alteration types for the Jinya,Gaolong and Nakuang gold deposits in the south-central part of the basin are remarkably similar to those of unequivocal orogenic gold deposits.Structural studies show that gold mineralization in the three gold deposits was controlled by tight "locked-up"anticlines with NW—SE-to E-W-trending and/or concomitant thrusts and/or shear zones,which resulted from NE-SW-to N-S-trending compression or transpression following the Early Triassic closure of the Paleo-Tethyan Ocean.Alteration zones in these deposits are dominated by silicification(quartz),sericitization,sulfidation and carbonation.Zoned pyrites in these deposits comprise Au-poor cores and invisible Au-bearing rims with minor external free gold.Euhedral to subhedral auriferous arsenopyrites also contribute to the gold budget.These features indicate that the three gold deposits are sediment-hosted orogenic gold deposits that contrast markedly with the Carlin-type gold deposits in the northern part of the Youjiang basin in terms of structural geometry and timing,mineralization style and nature of associated alteration.Although additional reliable ages using robust methodologies are still required,the older isotopic ages of the gold deposits in the south-central Youjiang basin are also consistent with earlier formation during transpression that predated extension during orogenic collapse,the period of formation of the Carlin-type gold deposits in the northern Youjiang basin.

铧厂沟金矿位于西秦岭勉略缝合带南侧,其产出受韧脆性剪切带控制,赋矿围岩为泥盆系细碧岩、凝灰质绢云千枚岩和灰岩。根据脉体穿切关系和矿物交代关系,可以将铧厂沟金矿分为早、中、晚3个成矿阶段。在铧厂沟金矿的石英中发育了CO₂-H₂O型、纯CO₂型、H₂O溶液型和含子矿物型四种类型流体包裹体。早期石英中原生包裹体主要是CO₂-H₂O型和纯CO₂型,其成分为CO₂+H₂O±N₂±CH₄±H₂S,均一温度集中在320~360℃,盐度为0.43%~5.14% NaCleqv;中阶段为主成矿阶段,该阶段石英中包含了所有四种类型的包裹体,其中H₂O溶液型包裹体占了大多数,CO₂-H₂O和水溶液包裹体均一温度集中在240~320℃,盐度为0.43%~11.19% NaCleqv;晚阶段石英仅发育水溶液型包裹体,具有较低的均一温度(118~228℃)和盐度(0.18%~6.59% NaCleqv)。根据CO₂-H₂O型包裹体计算主成矿阶段压力为70~195MPa,成矿深度为5~7km。总体而言,铧厂沟金矿的初始流体具有中高温、富CO₂、低盐度的变质流体特征,晚成矿阶段流体演化为低温、低盐度水溶液流体,流体的不混溶导致了主成矿期的矿质的大量沉淀,铧厂金矿为中浅成的造山型矿床。
