Abstract:
White, black, or white and black calcite spheres were discovered during the 20th century within geodes from several Pb-Zn ± Au-Ag epithermal vein deposits from the Baia Mare ore district, Eastern Carpathians, Romania, with the Herja ore deposit being the maiden occurrence. The black or black and white calcite spheres are systematically accompanied by needle-like sulfosalts which are known by the local miners as “plumosite”. The genesis of epithermal spheres composed partly or entirely of black calcite is considered to be related to the deposition of calcite within voids filled by hydrothermal fluids that contain acicular crystals of sulfosalts, mostly jamesonite in suspension. The proposed genetic model involves gravitational concentration of sulfosalt acicular crystals towards the base of open spaces within paleochannels of epithermal fluid flow and the subsequent formation of calcite spheres by geochemical self organization of amorphous calcium carbonate that crystallized to calcite via vaterite.

Abstract:
A study of geology and rocks paragenesis has been conducted at the Córrego do Sítio auriferous lineament, containing the Cachorro Bravo, Laranjeiras and Carvoaria metaturbidite-hosted lode-gold deposits located in the Quadrilátero Ferrífero Region, Minas Gerais, Brazil. These representative deposits are described to illustrate the essentially similar general character of all the deposits of lineament as well as the wide compositional and mineralogical differences in the ore of the different deposits, where, for the Cachorro Bravo deposit, a geological mapping included two underground mine galleries. The Córrego do Sítio unit is a metamorphosed turbidite in an alternating sequence of metagraywackes and phyllites, with parallel to discordant metamafic dikes and sills. The ore zone is predominantly hosted at the stratigraphic break between metasedimentary and metamafic rocks. Four deformation events affected the mine sequence. Mineralized veins and veinlets are considered to have formed within a brittle-ductile shear-zone environment and occurred in multiple episodes. Different vein types are recognized, but the most important volumetrically is a S1-concordant type characterized by smoky and milky quartz-carbonate-sulfide ± sulfosalts veins. Veins are dominated by quartz, but locally they are characterized by carbonate and a large variety of sulfide and sulfosalt minerals. Pyrite is the commonest associated sulfide mineral, followed by arsenopyrite and pyrrhotite. An extensive mineralogical study of polished sections has confirmed different generations of sulfide minerals. The sulfides and sulfosalt minerals are interrelated in the veins and disseminated on wall rocks. The data are consistent with a genetic models related to other Archean lode-gold deposits.

Abstract:
Based on the mineral composition, gold deposits of the south-eastern part of the East Sayan were typed. The most informative classification criterion for typing is the composition of the gold producing ore mineral associations which are specific to each of the selected types. Whereas using other criteria different structural, composition or genetic characteristics of deposits will necessarily overlap. Eight mineral types of deposits, characterizing the main gold-bearing ore mineral associations were identified: gold-polysulfide, gold-quartz, gold-telluride, gold-tetradymite, gold-stibnite, gold-bismuth-sulfosalt, gold-pyrrhotite and gold-fahlore types. Regional metallogenic divisions such as structural metallogenic zones, differ somewhat in the characteristics of mineralization. Thus, within the Bokson-Garganskaya metallogenic zone, gold-quartz, gold-polysulfide and gold-pyrrhotite types dominate, although gold-telluride and gold-bismuth-sulfosalt types are common in the western part of this zone. In the Ilchir zone, gold-fahlore type deposits are developed. Khamsarinskaya zone is characterized by gold-tetradimite and gold-antimonite deposits existence. It has been established that the mineral types of deposits formation depend on the enclosing rock complexes composition. Thus, gold-quartz, gold-polysulfide and gold-pyrrhotite types are formed in association with the ophiolites and rocks of the Archean crystalline basement. At the deposits associated with granitoid massifs, minerals of metalloids, such as bismuth-bearing sulfosalts, stibnite, tetradimite and tellurides, take a leading role in ores. In the carbonate strata, a gold-fahlore type is formed. The proposed classification allows typing all known gold deposits in the south-eastern part of the East Sayan and can be applied to adjacent regions.

Abstract:
The Busang mineral prospect in Kalimantan, Indonesia, was reported to host a large Au resource until 1997 when it was revealed that drill core samples had been deliberately and systematically contaminated (“salted”) with extraneous Au to falsify resource estimates. One month before the fraud was uncovered, Dr. G. Milligan, then professor emeritus of geology, visited the site to collect a suite of core samples for academic study that was deemed representative of the host rocks, alteration, and mineralization of the Busang Southeast Zone. These samples were re-examined here by optical microscopy, electron microprobe (EMPA), whole-rock geochemistry, and fluid inclusion microthermometry to characterize the subsurface geology and hydrothermal mineralization, and to assess reasons why the system is of uneconomic character. The host rocks were variably altered calc-alkaline porphyritic subvolcanic diorites, typical of the lithological units along the mineralized trend in the Kalimantan Gold Belt. Early hydrothermal mineralization with quartz-sulfide (pyrite, chalcopyrite, Cu-sulfosalts) stockwork veinlets associated with pervasive phyllic and propylitic alteration was overprinted by crudely banded quartz-carbonate-sulfide/sulfosalt (pyrite, sphalerite, chalcopyrite, galena, tennantite-tetrahedrite, bournonite-seligmannite) veins. The stockwork veins were associated with up to 140 ppb bulk rock Au, some of which was hosted by Cu-sulfosalts. Microthermometry on quartz-hosted aqueous fluid inclusion assemblages (FIA; n = 13) and single inclusions (non-FIA; n = 20) in quartz-carbonate-sulfide/sulfosalt veins yielded an overall range in homogenization temperatures (Th) between 179 °C and 366 °C and bulk salinities between 1.1 wt.% to 8.6 wt.% NaCl equivalent, with much smaller data ranges for individual FIA (e.g., FIA 3; 239.1 °C to 240.5 °C and 0.5 wt.% to 1.4 wt.% NaCl equivalent). Primary FIA along growth zones in quartz were identified, providing constraints on fluid characteristics at the time of quartz growth. Carbonate-hosted FIA (n = 3) and single inclusions (non-FIA; n = 3) in the same veins yielded Th between 254 °C and 343 °C and bulk salinities of 1.1 wt.% to 11.6 wt.% NaCl equivalent. Likewise, data ranges for individual FIA were much smaller. Many of the geological characteristics of the Busang Southeast Zone were compatible with a telescoped, intermediate-sulfidation epithermal system, having formed from diluted magmatic fluids that precipitated weak base metal mineralization. However, the system was unproductive with respect to Au and Ag, at least within the studied area. Of note, vein textures and fluid inclusion characteristics indicative of boiling or efficient fluid mixing—processes both considered critical for the formation of economic lode gold deposits—were absent in the samples.

Abstract:
Antimony, an emergent global contaminant, that is hydrothermally discharged along with other epithermal metals(-loids) (Au, As, Hg, Ag, Tl, Ag) onto Kolumbo volcano’s shallow (<500 m water depth) crater seabed, is fixed either in pyrite, orpiment-like As-sulfides, and ferrihydrite-like Fe-oxy(hydro)oxides, or forms independent Pb(Zn)- Sb sulfosalts, of layered Sb-rich (up to 2.2 wt%) chimneys. High concentrations of Sb (≤ 27.2 wt%) are found in early colloform chemically-zoned hydrothermal pyrite, and later orpiment (As2S3)-type As sulfide phases(≤16.09 wt %), along individual micronscale growth zones. Antimony in pyrite may occur in the relatively more toxic trivalent (or lower valence) (Sb3+) rather than pentavalent (Sb5+) forms. Lead (Pb) always occurs with Sb in growth zones where the abundances of Sb and Pb vary inversely with Fe and S, suggesting that Sb and Pb occur either as homogeneously distributed sulfosalt nanoparticles of Sb and Pb and/or lattice bound trace elements. These findings indicate the solid phases that fix Sb on the seafloor are crucial for high- grade concentration during shallow-water hydrothermal polymetallic mineralization, and reducing the high hydrothermal flux of this notorious environmental toxin to seawater, near the fishing area of Santorini that is also one of the most popular tourist places in the world.

Abstract:
The Santa Fe mining district is located in the Central Andean tin belt and contains several Sn-Zn-Pb-Ag deposits. From the economic point of view, the most important deposits of the district are Japo, Santa Fe and Morococala. Beyond the traditional metal commodities, Central Andean Tin Belt could become an exploration target for indium, owing to the potential of the ore-bearing paragenesis to contain high concentrations of this technology-critical element. Notwithstanding the foregoing, important features about genesis and fluids evolution have been poorly studied. This work presents a reinterpretation of the Santa Fe deposit as a greisen deposit based in fluid inclusions and isotopic data, as well as, an extensive and accurate fieldwork. In the Santa Fe district, the ore mineralization occurs as two main styles: (a) Sn-rich mineralization, represented by cassiterite-quartz veins, and (b) Zn-Pb-Ag mineralization, represented by sphalerite, galena and stannite group phases. The In contents in igneous rocks are between 1.5 and 2.5 ppm, whereas in the ore concentrate it attains up to 200 ppm. The 1000×In/Zn ratio ranges from 25 up to 4000. Exceptionally high In values were found in sakuraiite (2.03 wt.%). Sakuraiite in this deposit show evidences for a link between stannite-kësterite solution. Thus, there is an important relationship between stannite group and sulfosalts. Likewise, an important number of metal associations, including base, alloy, noble and critical metals, have been found in this ore deposit. There is a noteworthy exploration potential for these metals in the Santa Fe District and even in similar deposits also elsewhere in the Central Andean tin belt.<br>El districte miner de Santa Fe està situat a la faixa estannífera de la serralada central andina, la qual conté importants dipòsits de Sn-Zn-Pb-Ag. Des del punt de vista econòmic, els dipòsits més importants d'aquest districte són els de Japo, Santa Fe i Morococala. Més enllà dels productes metàl·lics tradicionals, la faixa estannífera podria convertir-se en un potencial objectiu d'exploració degut als elements estratègics que conté, entre ells l'indi. No obstant això, el coneixement dels aspectes més destacats de l'evolució i la gènesi dels fluids mineralitzadors en aquesta zona és incipient. Per aquesta raó, aquest treball pretén aclarir i reinterpretar la història i evolució geològica del jaciment de Santa Fe, classificant-lo com un dipòsit tipus greisen a partir de les associacions minerals i el seu quimisme. Així com, en l'estudi geotermomètric i considerant les dades isotòpiques obtingudes i amb base en un treball exhaustiu i sistemàtic de camp. Les menes metàl·liques del jaciment es presenten en dos tipus principals: (a) mineralització rica en Sn, representada per les vetes de quars i cassiterita, i (b) mineralització de Zn-Pb-Ag, representada per esfalerita, galena i minerals del grup de l'estannita. La geoquímica del conjunt de roques ígnies encaixants també va ser analitzada. El contingut d'indi és d'entre 1,5 i 2,5 ppm, el concentrat arriba fins a 200 ppm i la relació 1000×In/Zn oscil·la entre 25 i 4000. Addicionalment, s'han trobat valors excepcionalment alts d'indi en cristalls de sakuraiita (2.03% en pes), mostrant l'evidència d'un vincle entre la solució d'estannita-kësterita, de la qual es pot inferir una relació genètica entre el grup de l'estannita i altres sulfosals en aquest dipòsit. El jaciment de Santa Fe també mostra un important nombre d'associacions metàl·liques, incloent-hi metalls base, aliatges, metalls nobles i metalls crítics. Hi ha un evident potencial d'exploració per aquests metalls al Districte de Santa Fe i fins i tot en dipòsits similars en altres zones de la faixa estannífera i en la serralada central andina.<br>El distrito minero de Santa Fe se encuentra ubicado en la faja estannífera de la cordillera central andina, la cual contiene importantes depósitos de Sn-Zn-Pb-Ag.

Más allá de los productos metálicos tradicionales, la faja estannífera podría convertirse en un potencial blanco de exploración para elementos tecnológicamente estratégicos como el indio. No obstante lo anterior, el conocimiento de los aspectos más destacados respecto a la evolución y la génesis de los " uidos mineralizantes en este sector andino continúan siendo incipiente. Por ello, este trabajo pretende esclarecer y reinterpretar la historia y evolución geológica del yacimiento de Santa Fe, el cual en el presente trabajo se ha clasi! cado como un depósito tipo greisen con base fundamentalmente en el estudio de las asociaciones minerales y su química mineral; así como, en el estudio geotermométrico y considerando los datos isotópicos obtenidos, sin dejar de lado un exhaustivo y sistemático trabajo de campo.

El contenido de In en rocas ígneas resulta ser de entre 1.5 y 2.5 ppm, mientras que en el concentrado de mineral alcanza hasta 200 ppm. La relación 1000 × In / Zn oscila entre 25 y 4000. Aunado a estos reslutados, valores excepcionalmente altos de In fueron encontrados en cristales de sakuraiita (2,03 % en peso). La sakuraiita en este depósito representa un vínculo entre la solución de stannite-kësterite, de lo cual puede inferirse una relación genética entre el grupo de la estannita y otras sulfosales en este depósito. Asimismo, el yacimiento de Santa Fe también muestra un importante número de asociaciones metálicas, incluyendo metales bases, aleaciones, metales nobles y metales críticos. Hay un evidente potencial de exploración para estos metales en el Distrito de Santa Fe e incluso en depósitos similares también en otras zonas en la faja estannífera y en la cordillera central andina.

Abstract:
In the first part of this study are presented the synthesis and results of structural investigations of mixed metal sulfosalts. Included are the structures of five new lead, bismuth and antimony sulfosalts; phase GZ1 (Bi4.39 Pb1.4 Sb3.21 S13), phase GZ2 (Bi1.74 Pb2.62 Sb2.15 S8), phase GZ3 (Bi0.87 Pb1.22 Sb0.42 S3), phase GZ4 (Sb4.66 Pb3.97 Bi1.37 S13) and phase GZ5 (Sb6 Pb14 S23), and the revaluation of the known phases zinckenite (Pb1.49 Sb3.64 S7), stibnite (Sb2 S3), lillianite (Pb3 Bi2 S6) and galenobismutite (Pb Bi2 S4). With the exception of stibnite and galenobismutite these phases are characterised by mixed occupancies, and the site populations were assigned via a combination of microprobe analyses, polyhedral distortion and bond valence analysis results. To this end two FORTRAN programs were written, OCCGEN96 and VOLUME96, the former to calculate the occupancy of a site based on the bond valence contributions of its constituents, and the latter to calculate its polyhedral volume. Phase GZ1 exhibits a monoclinic structure with a central region reminiscent of stibnite, and its distribution of occupancies indicate the presence of a supercell produced by ordering. Phases GZ2 and GZ3 are hexagonal with features in common with zinckenite. GZ3 possesses the smallest hexagonal cell yet found for a sulfosalt and its structure contains three-fold metallic columns, in addition it displays a metal coordination environment not previously seen in this type of structure. The positional disorder, and partial occupancies (manifest as poorly defined hexagonal channels) exhibited by zinckenite and the other hexagonal sulfosalts are here explained for the first time in terms of alternately occupied configurations arranged on a superlattice. Phase GZ5 resulted from an attempt to crystallise the mineral semseyite whose structure is unknown, but possibly closely related to that of GZ5. The poorly defined phases from the literature have all been refined with better discrepancy indices and in the case of lillianite the results differ significantly from those previously reported. Additional investigations of phase GZ1 were carried out using transmission electron microscopy, and these lead to the identification of a number of related phases and also revealed the presence of disordered and composite structures. In the second part of the study diamond inclusions of lower mantle origin are investigated. In common with the sulfosalts they are characterised by mixed occupancies, however the distribution of metal species within mineral silicates is better understood than in sulfosalts, and they provided a good base from which to study the latter. The presented results include the crystal structure of the new mineral TAPP (Mg0.76 Fe0.15) (Al1.76 Cr0.16 Mn0.06) (Mg1.88 Fe0.08) Si1 (Si1.92 Al0.08) O12, which is of great significance in lower mantle genesis theory; the structures of two novel pyroxenes (Mg0.46 Al0.43 Fe0.06 Cr0.05) (Mg0.39 Na0.31 Ca0.16 Fe0.06 Mn0.04) (Si1.91 Al0.09) O6 and (Mg0.73 Al0.23 Cr0.03) (Mg0.70 Na0.06 Ca0.03 Fe0.16 Mn0.04) (Si0.83 Al0.17) SiO6 and the only sapphire (Al1.98Fe0.01Si0.01O3) to be found as a diamond inclusion. The structure of TAPP is particularly interesting as it has a garnet composition but is tetragonal not cubic. In the past the only non cubic garnets have been so only by a few angstroms at the most, while the cell of TAPP has a c parameter nearly three times that of a.

Abstract:
The Miguel Auza mine, located in Zacatecas State, Mexico, is a vein-type polymetallic epithermal deposit hosted in deformed argillite, siltstone and greywacke of the Cretaceous Caracol Formation. Silver-rich base metal veins (0.2 m to >1.5 m wide) are spatially associated with NE-striking, steeply SE- dipping (70-80º) faults over a strike length of 1.6 km and a depth of 460 m. Three distinct structural stages are correlated with hydrothermal mineral deposition: Stage I is characterized by normal faulting and early hypogene alteration of the sedimentary rock. Stage II is associated with reverse-sense reactivation of early normal faults, dilation of bedding planes/fractures, and deposition of barren calcite + pyrite veinlets. Sub-stages IIA and IIB are related to the development of reverse-fault-hosted quartz-carbonate sulphide veins and characterize the main stage of mineralization. Associated hydrothermal minerals during the main stage of mineral deposition are quartz, muscovite, and calcite. Stage III involves late NW-SE striking block faulting, brecciation and calcite veining. Later supergene oxidation of veins led to deposition of Fe-oxides and hydroxides. The main Ag-bearing minerals comprise pyrargyrite, tetrahedrite- freibergite, polybasite-antimonpearceite, and acanthite, with associated sulphides including galena, sphalerite, chalcopyrite, arsenopyrite and pyrite. In the main ore zone, base metal sulphides are commonly intergrown with the Ag-bearing sulfosalts. Compositions of Ag-rich tetrahedrite + pyrargyrite + sphalerite indicate a primary depositional temperature around 325-350ºC for the late phase of sub-stage IIB. 40Ar/39Ar dating of wall-rock illite associated with stage I alteration yields an age of 46.58 ± 0.30 Ma. Ages of 46.01 ± 0.55 Ma, and 44.55 ± 0.22 Ma were obtained for vein muscovite related to the main stage (sub-stage IIB) of ore deposition. These ages correspond to the later stage of the Laramide orogeny in Northern Mexico. The geometric relationship between the various structures, vein types, and the regional Miguel Auza fault zone suggest episodic reverse-sense reactivation of normal faults. Based on (1) the tectonic setting, (2) spatially related igneous rocks, (3) ore and gangue mineralogy, and textures (4) geochemical signature, and (5) inferred temperature of formation, the Miguel Auza deposit is interpreted to be an intermediate-sulfidation type deposit.<br>Thesis (Master, Geological Sciences & Geological Engineering) -- Queen's University, 2010-04-15 13:04:06.104

Abstract:
Data on geology of the Oleninskoe deposit, and results of mineralogical and geochemical investigations of ores and altered rocks are presented. Mineralization is connected with granite porphyry sills, an end member of gabbrodiorite-diorite-granodiorite complex of minor intrusions. The main alteration processes are diopsidization and biotitization, formation of quartz-muscovite-albite, quartz-aresenopyrite-tourmaline, and quartz metasomatic rocks. More than 50 ore minerals (sulfides, sulfosalts, tellurides, and native metals) were identified in the ore, including 20 minerals of silver and gold. Mineral associations in the ore and sequence of mineral formation are defined. Five generations of gold-silver alloys are identified, its composition covers spectrum from native silver to high-grade gold. Mineralized fluids in the deposit are of high salinity (sodium and calcium chlorides), and rich in As, Sb, Pb, Cu, Zn, and Ag. The Oleninskoe deposit is classified as an epithermal metamorphosed gold deposit.The book is of interest for specialists in economic geology, mineralogy and geochemistry of ore deposits.

Abstract:
La presente investigación tiene como eje principal el estudio detallado de las mineralizaciones y la geología de un área del Macizo del Deseado con características geológicas y metalogénicas únicas. La elección del área del El Tranquilo o también conocido como “anticlinal” El Tranquilo, como zona de estudio, se ha basado en el reducido conocimiento y la presencia características atípicas en las mineralizaciones y la escasa representación, en el Macizo del Deseado, de las rocas y unidades geológicas aflorantes. La investigación ha sido realizada en tres etapas: una primera con recopilación de antecedentes y trabajo de campo, una segunda analítica con trabajos de laboratorio y una tercera etapa interpretativa. Se realizó el procesado de imágenes satelitales (TM, SPOT, IKONOS) y se ejecutaron mapeos geológico-estructurales de detalle y semidetalle (con elaboración de una cartografía digital), descripción de testigos de sondeos (gran parte de los 30.000 metros de las perforaciones ejecutadas en la propiedad minera), se realizaron estudios petrográficos, calcográficos, de rayos X, determinaciones geoquímicas, estudios de inclusiones fluidas, de microscopía electrónica, microsonda electrónica, determinaciones geocronológicas y análisis de isótopos estables e inestables. Además se participó de otros trabajos complementarios realizados durante las distintas etapas de exploración minera, tales como geoquímica de suelos, muestras de trincheras y relevamientos magnetométricos y geoeléctricos terrestres y la interpretación, para la zona de trabajo, de estudios previos de magnetometría aérea y líneas sísmicas. El área del “anticlinal” El Tranquilo, está caracterizada por la presencia de rocas y unidades geológicas con escasa representación en el Macizo del Deseado, y representa una “ventana geológica” que permite el estudio del intervalo Triásico superior - Jurásico inferior, períodos que se encuentran poco expuestos en esta provincia geológica. La secuencia estratigráfica de este sector se inicia con las sedimentitas continentales, areniscas a areniscas conglomerádicas con intercalaciones de pelitas, del Grupo El Tranquilo, del Triásico medio a superior (Jalfin y Herbst 1995). Por encima, se presentan las rocas volcaniclásticas de la Formación Roca Blanca (Herbst, 1965), del Jurásico inferior. Esta es la litología más desarrollada en el área y está compuesta por tufitas, areniscas y sabulitas ricas en componentes volcánicos. Intruyendo a las sedimentitas continentales y a las tufitas, se disponen rocas básicas a intermedias del Jurásico inferior, que se presentan como filones capa de diabasa en el sector este del área y como pórfidos andesíticos de formas subcirculares en el sector noroeste, de la Formación Cerro León (Panza, 1995 y de Barrio et al., 1999). En los sectores norte y noreste del área afloran volcánitas del Jurásico medio a superior, basaltos y andesitas de la Formación Bajo Pobre, y en el sector sudoriental pequeños asomos de ignimbritas riolíticas del Grupo Bahía Laura (Panza, 1995). Estas unidades se encuentran parcialmente cubiertas por el Basalto Las Mercedes del Cretácico superior y el Basalto Cerro del Doce correspondiente al Eoceno (Panza, 1982) y finalizan esta secuencia sedimentos modernos, aluviales, coluviales y de bajos. En la presente investigación se determinó la presencia de niveles ignimbríticos ácidos y coladas basálticas intercaladas en las tufitas de la Formación Roca Blanca. A partir de las edades obtenidas, relaciones estratigráficas y composición se desvincula a los intrusivos dioríticos de la Formación Cerro León y se los asocia con el magmátismo de la Formación La Leona (Jurásico inferior). Los basaltos aflorantes en el área presentan características de basaltos continentales que se corresponden a los primeros indicios del magmatismo sinextensional jurásico y representan magmas básicos de origen mantélico que alcanzaron la superficie. Se los desvinculan de la Formación Bajo Pobre por ser ligeramente más antiguos al estar intercalados entre las tufitas de la Formación Roca Blanca (Jurásico inferior) y por presentar diferentes características isotópicas y petrogenéticas. Se define así una nueva unidad formacional para estas rocas denominándolas Formación El Piche. Los pórfidos andesíticos de la Formación Cerro León y las andesitas de la Formación Bajo Pobre presentan similitudes geoquímicas, isotópicas, petrogenéticas y edades semejantes, por lo que se interpreta un mismo origen para estas rocas, siendo los pórfidos andesíticos partes de los conductos de emisión de las coladas andesíticas. A diferencia del resto del Macizo del Deseado donde predomina casi por completo deformación con comportamiento netamente frágil, en el área de estudio se reconoció deformación tanto dúctil como frágil en las secuencias triásicas y jurásicas. Los rasgos estructurales más sobresalientes son: un domamiento regional de entre 15 a 20 km de diámetro, definido por Di Persia (1956) como “anticlinal” El Tranquilo, domamientos y plegamientos con dimensiones menores a 1 km localizados dentro de la antiforma regional, un sistema de fracturas radiales asociado al domamiento y la falla El Tranquilo con un sistema de vetas controladas por fallas. Se determinó que el “anticlinal” El Tranquilo, se formó por el emplazamiento de un cuerpo intrusivo no aflorante del orden de 8 a 10 Km de diámetro y profundidad mínima hasta su techo de 1400 m, subyaciendo al Grupo El Tranquilo y a la Formación Roca Blanca, y generando por su intrusión, el domamiento regional y los domamientos y plegamientos con dimensiones menores a 1 km localizados corresponde a una deformación producida por lacolitos o stocks no aflorantes. En el área de estudio se reconocieron gran cantidad de mineralizaciones, las que totalizan ~80 km lineales de vetas, ubicadas principalmente en el sector central del área. Las vetas se concentran hacia el este de la estructura regional, la falla El Tranquilo, son subparalelas a esta estructura y están emplazadas en las tufitas de la Formación Roca Blanca y pelitas y areniscas del Grupo El Tranquilo. Se han discriminado dos tipos distintos de vetas según su composición y expresión superficial, vetas formadas por importantes zonas de oxidación que representan la expresión superficial de vetas de sulfuros, y vetas, brechas hidrotermales, vetillas y stockworks formados principalmente por cuarzo. A partir de las distintas características observadas y datos obtenidos (composición, signatura geoquímica, mineralogía, datos de inclusiones fluidas, isótopos, controles estructurales y litológicos y edades) se ha podido diferenciar dos estilos de mineralización. La mineralización polimetálica que presenta una compleja mineralogía de sulfuros asociada a una signatura geoquímica de In, Cu, Au, As, Sn, W, Bi, Zn, Pb, Ag, Cd y Sb. Las temperaturas y salinidades de los fluidos indican un sistema epitermal para la formación de estas vetas. Su génesis esta vinculada a los cuerpos intrusivos dioríticos reducidos por sedimentos ricos en materia orgánica, concentrando en los fluidos hidrotermales In, Sn, Ag, W, Bi. Se define a esta mineralización como un depósito epitermal vetiforme polimetálico rico en In semejante a los depósitos de Japón y Bolivia. Las características de esta mineralización y la edad Jurásica inferior (193 Ma) confirman la presencia de un nuevo tipo de deposito epitermal que difiere del clásico modelo de baja sulfuración del Macizo del Deseado y que no se encuentra asociado al importante volcanismo bimodal del Jurásico medio a superior (Complejo Bahía Laura), como la mayoría de las mineralizaciones del Macizo del Deseado. Este hecho potencia el hallazgo de otros tipos de depósitos epitermales polimetálicos, asociados a otras rocas y con diferentes asociaciones metalogénicas. La mineralización argentífera está formada por cuarzo, carbonatos y en menor medida sulfuros y sulfosales con una signatura geoquímica de Ag (Au), Pb, Cu y Zn. Las temperaturas y salinidades de los fluidos indican un sistema epitermal para la formación de estas vetas. Su génesis está vinculada al magmatismo intermedio de las Formaciones Cerro León y Bajo Pobre, atribuyéndole una edad Jurásica media (168 Ma). Según sus características esta mineralización puede ser definida como un depósito epitermal de sulfuración intermedia. Esta mineralización también representa una variación en el modelo de baja sulfuración del Macizo del Deseado, pero está genéticamente asociada al volcanismo bimodal del Complejo Bahía Laura (Fm. Bajo Pobre) por lo que podría incluirse dentro de las mineralizaciones de la Provincia auroargéntifera del Deseado.
