Skarn deposits are economically important valuable sources, which metals such as tungsten, manganese, gold, copper, zinc, nickel, lead, molybdenum and iron. A skarn is formed by consists of various metasomatic processes during the metamorphism between two adjacent lithological units.
Jan 10, 2019· Moreover, due to the typical high abundances of pyrite, chalcopyrite, and magnetite, copper skarns may be pinpointed by a magnetic high. On a deposit scale, instrumental methods, infrared spectroscopy and Xray diffraction, can be used to identify the main mineralogy of skarn .

The East and West coppergold skarn orebodies were mined in the 1970s and the worldclass Fortitude goldsilver skarn deposit was discovered north of the West orebody in late 1980. After three years of stripping and mining of the lower grade Upper Fortitude ore zone, production from the larger and richer lower Fortitude ore zone began in late ...
Iron oxide copper gold ore deposits (IOCG) are important and highly valuable concentrations of copper, gold and uranium ores hosted within iron oxide dominant gangue assemblages which share a common genetic origin. These ore bodies range from around 10 million tonnes of contained ore, to 4,000 million tonnes or more, and have a grade of between % and 5% copper, with gold contents ranging ...

Mar 03, 2020· The Morrison, classified as a copper and gold skarn, produced kilograms of gold, kilograms of silver and tonnes copper from 2,647 tonnes. Another exciting prospect is the Buckhorn deposit, classified as a Porphyry Cu +/ Mo +/ Au deposit and hosted in the prolific Quesnelia Terrane, where pyrite, chalcopyrite, native copper ...
to treat a high pyrite coppergold skarn ore with signifi cant clay content, as described by Meka and Lane (2010). The plant was commissioned in 2008 for a capital cost of approximately 150 M, placing it in the lowest quartile for capital intensity for copper mineral processing projects.
Geographic coordinates:, (WGS84) Elevation: 1520: Relative position: The Redline Skarn is part of the Converse Gold Property, which is located 180 km northeast of Reno, 18 miles (29 km) northwest of Battle Mountain, Nevada.
Nov 02, 2007· Copper is highest in garnetrich skarn near the intrusive contact, whereas gold is concentrated in pyroxenedominant skarn, particularly where the pyroxene is ironrich (>Hd 50). Silver has elevated concentrations proximal to the stock and at the distal skarn front, beyond the main Fortitude gold zone (Kotlyar et al. 1998).
% Copper, g/t Gold, % Zinc, 35 g/t Silver and % Lead. 4). The team has been very busy out in the field over the last three months and we are very excited about what we have managed to uncover. New, drill ready CopperGold skarn targets have been identified within 10km of the original discovery of skarn mineralisation
Zn:Au (<100) and Ag/Au (<1) ratios. Gold is commonly present as micronsized inclusions in sulphides, or at sulphide grain boundaries. It is often associated with tellurides. To the naked eye, Au skarn ore is generally indistinguishable from waste rock. Magnesian Au skarns: Native gold ± pyrrhotite ± chalcopyrite ± pyrite
Aug 07, 2020· Moreover, due to the typical high abundances of pyrite, chalcopyrite, and magnetite, copper skarns may be pinpointed by a magnetic high. On a deposit scale, instrumental methods, infrared spectroscopy and Xray diffraction, can be used to identify the main mineralogy of skarn .
Oct 17, 2019· This repeated hydrothermal activity stripped and transported copper and gold from the surrounding rocks and concentrated these elements within the top of the magma chambers where they were focused into the volcanic vents and along regional structures that formed the porphyry and skarn deposits. This was hot water, between 550700 degrees ...
In copper skarns containing monticellite ( Ertsberg, Irian Jaya, Indonesia, Kyle et al., 1991; Maid of Erin, British Columbia, Meinert unpub. data) bornitechalcocite are the dominant CuFe sulfides rather than pyritechalcopyrite. The largest copper skarns are associated with mineralized porphyry copper .
The Big Gossan CuAu skarn deposit is the highest grade copper deposit in the worldclass Ertsberg district, Irian Jaya. Current reserves are million metric tons (Mt), grading percent Cu ...
both highgrade and bulk tonnage CopperGold mineralisation. All holes intersected widespread, zoned skarn mineralisation, with hole VB 2006 intersecting a weakly to moderately pyritepyrrhotitemagnetite impregnated intrusion of tonalitic composition with trace chalcopyrite.
Jul 01, 2020· Baoshantao and Fenghuangshan deposits are typical skarntype ore deposit. • Gold, Ag, Sb, Pb and Bi are mainly of lattice bound appearance in pyrite and chalcopyrite. • Skarn Cu (Au) mineralization was formed in a hightemperature, high oxidized magmatichydrothermal fluid. •
Gold property: 1) unweathered skarn, locally rich in primary FeCu sulfides and gold; 2) secondary chalcocite with subordinate native copper; and 3) Aubearing, Ferich jasperoid. Most of the copper production to date has come from the chalcocite bodies, whereas most of the gold production has come from the primary sulfide and jasperoid zones.
Skarn deposits are economically valuable as sources of metals such as tin, tungsten, manganese, copper, gold, zinc, lead, nickel, molybdenum and iron. [4] A skarn is formed by a variety of metasomatic processes during metamorphism between two adjacent .
Aug 19, 2020· The highgrade coppersilver veins in skarn (chalcopyritebornite) suggests proximity to a porphyry copper system within the Erin zone. A km long, structurally controlled Quartz vein system is located in the Lynx target, with gold values up to g/t ( oz/t).
overprinted by sericitic alteration. Minor gold along with molybdenite, some copper, and basemetal skarn mineralization occurred during this early event. A second mineralization event, which accounts for the bulk of the gold in the deposit is characterized by advanced argillic alteration, free gold, and abundant pyrite in the
The Mabilo coppergoldmagnetite skarn deposit is located in southern Luzon in the Paracale mineral district, where iron has been produced historically from several skarn deposits. Mabilo occurs in the southwest of the district and is distinct and significant because of its high grades of copper and gold compared to historical mines.
