Abstract
The Podgolechnoe deposit, which belongs to the alkalic-type (A-type) epithermal gold-ore deposits, lies in the Central Aldan ore district (Russia). Gold-ore mineralization is associated with a volcano-plutonic complex made of rocks of the monzonite-syenite formation (J3–K1). The ore bodies are localized in the crushing zones developed after crystalline schists, gneisses, and granites of the crystalline basement complexes (Ar–Pr). Metasomatic alterations in host rocks have potassic specialization. Vein ore minerals are adular, fluorite, roscoelite, sericite, and carbonate. Ore minerals are pyrite, galena, sphalerite, cinnabar, brannerite, monazite, bismuth telluride, stutzite, hessite, petzite, montbraite, and native gold. The deposit has been explored as a gold-ore deposit, however, due to complex composition of ores there is a need to reveal the possibilities of the integrated development of this deposit. This could provide for a reserve increment and an increase in the gross recoverable value of ores due to the extraction of associated components.
