Abstract
In this study, the composition of fluid inclusions in minerals from polymetallic sulfide deposits Ashadze-1, Semenov-2, Krasnov, Rainbow and from the Lost City carbonate structures of hydrothermal fields in the Atlantic Ocean was determined using pyrolysis-free gas chromatography–mass spectrometry.It was found out that sulfides and anhydrite from the hydrothermal ore crystallized in reducing conditions with the active participation of hydrocarbons, including high-molecular, sulfonated, nitrogenated and halogenated compounds as well as water and carbon dioxide.On the other hand, carbonate structures formed in considerably more oxidizing conditions, for which the main components of volatiles were СО2 and Н2О. The amount of detected hydrocarbons, including sulfonated, nitrogenated and halogenated compounds is significantly smaller compared to sulfides of ore vent structures.
