Abstract

We present a novel study of fluid inclusions in the vein quartz of the Kyvvozh gold placer field and in the quartz of gold-quartz intergrowths from the placer (methods of homogenization, cryometry, and Raman spectroscopy were used). We determined that in vein quartz the homogenization temperature of fluid inclusions fluctuated in the range of 220–425 °C, the liquid phase was represented by aqueous solutions, predominantly sodium and magnesium chloride. The homogenization temperature of fluid inclusions in quartz of gold–quartz intergrowths is 220–330 °C, and an aqueous solution of sodium chloride predominates in the liquid phase. Mineral formation proceeded in two stages: at the first stage, the fluid was enriched with nitrogen, at the second stage — with carbon dioxide.
