Pyrite textures, trace element and sulfur isotopes of Yanlinsi …
Gold mainly occurs in pyrite fractures (Fig. 5 h), indicating that the mineralizing fluid is rich in reduced sulfur and that gold is mainly transported as Au(HS) 2-complexes (Seward, 1993, Stefánsson and Seward, 2004, Williams-Jones et al., 2009). As a result, sulfur isotope ratios provide information on prospective gold and ore fluid …
Mineral chemistry and sources of fluid and sulfur at the Katbasu gold
In most circumstances, the transport of gold in a reduced ore-forming fluid where gold is incorporated into sulfides during precipitation is largely dependent on the availability of sulfur (Simon et al., 2000, Pokrovski et al., 2014). Therefore, deciphering the geochemistry and isotopic systematics of oxygen and sulfur will contribute to our ...
Sulfur radical species form gold deposits on Earth
The formation of gold deposits on Earth requires aqueous fluids that extract gold from minerals and magmas and transport and precipitate the metal as economic concentrations in ores that are three to six orders of magnitude larger than the Au mean content (∼0.001 ppm) of common crustal and mantle rocks (1–9).However, natural data on gold contents …

Because gold is transported in sulfur-rich hydrothermal fluids as sulfide complexes of Au 1+ (AuHS 0, Au(HS) 2, Au(HS)S 3 −), this process would create a local redox trap for Au (Shenberger and Barnes, 1989) because the local dissolution of arsenopyrite creates more reducing conditions than in the bulk fluid demonstrated by the …
