New data is provided on gold mineralization in the southern Baikal-Patom metallogenic province, Ikibzyakskoye ore field, located in Pravo-Mamakansky deep fault zone separating Patom fold area from Baikal-Vitim volcanic-plutonic belt. For the first time, the metallogenic province was found to comprise granitoid-hosted ore vein-stringer zones with high-grade economic gold sulfide-quartz mineralization. This mineralization is localized within fault shistosity zones manifesting intense beresitization and listvenitization (in metabasite xenoliths).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
