Abstract

Hydrothermal-metasomatic formations with Au content from 0.5 to 3.0 g/t, sometimes up to 24-32 g/t, were found in the east of the Siberian platform in the brecciated zones. They form, along ancient faults activated in the Mesozoic, extended narrow formations in terrigenous-carbonate and sandy layers of PZ-MZ age. The comparison of metasomatites with gold-ore metasomatites of the Kuranakh and Tabornoye deposits makes it possible for the first time to predict ore sources formed as a result of hydrothermal-metasomatic processes. Perhaps these sources represent a huge metallogenic potential.
