“…Gold content in pyrite decreases to < 1 ppm in pristine, unzoned pyrite (Ho et al, 1995;Large et al, 2007;Morey et al, 2008;Cook et al, 2009;Large et al, 2009;Sung et al, 2009;Thomas et al, 2011;Velásquez et al, 2014). Some generations of pyrite at Bendigo, Victoria, Australia, also reveal syndeformational growth marked by coupled changes in the concentrations of Au and As (Thomas et al, 2011). SIMS and LA-ICP-MS elemental maps revealed that Au is incorporated into pyrite as inclusions of free Au and Au in solid solution (Mumin et al, 1994;Large et al, 2009 (Goldfarb et al, 2005; and references therein).…”
