P-T projection of the high-salinity portion of the NaCl-H2O system. The line with a
valor indicates L-V curves separating L and L+V fiellds of the valued salinity. If a
hypersaline inclusion homogenize by vapor disappearance, the pressure condition
can be estimated (Bodnar et al., 1985)

Examples:
<High-sulfidation Au>
4AuCl2 ־+ 2H2O = 4Au + 8Cl ־+ 4H+
+ O2
<Low-sulfidation Au>
4Au(HS)2 ־+ 4H+ + 2H2O = 4Au +
8H2S + O2.

deposits
Nash (1976)
Photomicrographs of doubly polished thin section of stockwork veinlet quartz from
the Santo Tomas II porphyry Cu-Au deposit, Philippines:
Left: polyphase hypersaline inclusions having red, transparent hematite flake (hm)
in addition to halite (ha), opaque mineral (op), vapor (v) and interstitial brine.
Right: euhedral negative crystal-shaped gaseous inclusions associated with
hematite flake (hm) in addition to vapor (v) and interstitial brine.

SEM-EPMA PIXE
• Halite-bearing inclusions
→ large amounts of chloride complexes as Cu-transporting species
• Vapor-rich inclusions
→ Temperature fall by boiling
• Chalcopyrite daughter minerals
→ The present fluid was carrying copper
Halite-bearing inclusions 0 → 12
Vapor-rich inclusions 0→ 6
Chalcopyrite daughter minerals 0→ 4
