The significance of green synthesized nanomaterials with a uniform shape, reduced sizes,
superior mechanical capabilities, phase microstructure, magnetic behavior, and superior …

The ubiquity of Au-bearing arsenian pyrite in hydrothermal ore deposits suggests that the
coupled geochemical behaviour of Au and As in this sulfide occurs under a wide range of …

The chemical composition, textures and mineral associations of pyrite provide key
information that help elucidate the evolution of hydrothermal systems. However, linking the …

Porphyry copper deposits are currently the world's largest source of copper and
molybdenum, and are also among the largest reservoirs of gold in the upper crust. Despite …

Pyrite from the Dong**, Huangtuliang and Hougou gold deposits, Hebei Province, China,
was investigated using a combination of ore microscopy, including back-scattered imaging …

Recognizing if and how Au is remobilized, in solid, melt, or fluid state, is critical for
understanding the origin of high-grade ore zones in Au deposits. When evidence for Au …

Although studies have proposed that iron oxide-apatite (IOA) deposits may represent the
deeper roots of some Andean iron oxide copper-gold (IOCG) systems, their genetic links …

The platinum-group minerals (PGM) are a diverse group of minerals that concentrate the
platinum-group elements (PGE; Os, Ir, Ru, Rh, Pt, and Pd). At the time of writing, the …

The nanoparticulate gold component in ore deposits and exploration samples is yet to be
fully realised but new methods of characterisation and analysis, access to high-grade gold …
