Abstract
Chemical composition of ore-forming minerals in antimony, mercury, mercury-arsenic and arsenic (realgar orpiment) deposits on the southern slope of the Great Caucasus has been investigated. These deposits represent medium and low-temperature formations, developing stage-by stage in quartz-antimonite, quartz-dickite-carbonate-cinnabar and realgar-orpiment stages of mineralization. Chemical composition of fluid inclusions, investigated by the method of triple water extractions shows the evolution of ore-forming solutions from chlorine-sodium at initial (quartz-antimonite) stage to hydrocarbonate-magnesium-calcium composition in the final (realgar-orpiment) stage of mineralization.
