Reduced Intrusion-related Gold Systems

Chapter Full-text available
Jan 2007
Craig JR Hart
Reduced intrusion-related gold systems (RIRGS) are
characterized by widespread arrays of sheeted auriferous
quartz veins that preferentially form in the brittle carapace at
the top of small plutons, where they form bulk-tonnage, low-
grade Au deposits characterized by a Au-Bi-Te-W metal
assemblage, such as the Fort Knox and Dublin Gulch
deposits. RI...

... Mesozoic orogenic belts, although supporting documentation

for these classifi ca- tions is mostly lacking. Suggested examples
include the Bolivian Polymetallic Belt, Yanshanian orogen of the
North China craton, Tien Shan of central Asia, New England and
Lachlan provinces in Australia, and the Bohemian Massif and the
Iberian Peninsula in Europe (Fig. 2). Specifi c de- posits include
Timbarra (Mustard, 2001), Kidston (Baker and Tullemans, 1990),
and potentially other Au deposits in east- ern Australia (Blevin,
2004); Penedona and Jales (Portugal), Salave and Solomon

... typically deposit metals in intrusion-hosted, con- tact, pluton-

proximal, and pluton-distal settings, and thus exhibit a
predictable zonation of differing deposit styles out- ward from the
central, mineralizing pluton (Fig. 12). Skarns and replacements
are generally pluton proximal, with an increase in structural
control on more distal mineralization. There is also crustal-scale
vertical zonation, with epizonal occurrences forming at shallower

... metal signatures develop broad-scale zon- ing surrounding

and above a central causative pluton, due primarily to the effects
of steep thermal gradients on fl uid chemistry (Figs. 9, 12).
Gradients and metal zones are steep- er on the sides of the
pluton and broadly developed above it (Fig. 5). Zoning is
somewhat analogous to that identifi ed in porphyry systems
(e.g., Jones, ...

... Stalling is essential for metal concentration,

because if the magmatic plumbing system
reaches the near surface in an open system, then
much of the degassing will result in a loss of
metals into the surrounding atmosphere. Thus,
oxidized intrusion-related gold deposits (e.g.,
Sillitoe 1991; Hart 2007) , including porphyry,
skarn, and epithermal ores ( Fig. 2A, B), form at
shallow crustal levels where large fluid releases
are most expected a few kilometers below the
surface. Deeper level formation of widespread
orogenic gold is inconsistent with depths that
most magmatic systems are shown to undergo
large-scale volatile release. ...

careful in classifying a deposit as magmatic-

hydrothermal based upon criteria used to define
the small group of RIRGD. As stressed by Hart
(2007) , these deposits are associated with felsic,
ilmenite-series plutons that lack magnetite. The
critical characteristics argued as definitive of this
group of deposits (Thompson and Newberry
2000) relate to gold ores genetically associated
with their causative reduced intrusions. ...

... Intrusion-related gold deposits (IRGS) can

divide into reduced and oxidized IRGS (Hart and
Goldfarb 2005). Among them, the reduced type is
generally characterized by Au-Bi-Te-W
assemblages (Hart 2007) , and the oxidized ones
are Au-rich variants of the porphyry Cu-Au class
(Hart 2007;Niroomand et al. 2018). The magmatic
rocks in oxidized intrusion-related gold deposits
commonly have high oxygen fugacity (Helt et al.
2014) and high water content (Li et al. 2018),
favoring Au-Chalcophile mental association
(Elshourbagi and Fan 2021). ...

... A existência de fluidos aquocarbônicos de alta

temperatura e baixa salinidade e de fluidos
aquosos bifásicos de temperaturas e salinidades
variadas indica que a saturação de fluidos por
parte da hospedeira deve ter ocasionado
fraturamento hidráulico das encaixantes
(rebaixamento da pressão), as quais promoveram
a liberação de soluções magmáticas e
consequente interação com fluidos externos, a
níveis crustais mais rasos, o qual estaria ilustrado
pelas brechas hidráulicas. Todas essas
características são, portanto, similares àquelas
descritas para depósitos profundos gerados em
arco magmático, como sistemas do tipo pórfiro, a
exemplo das reportadas por Sinclair (2007);
