Geological and geochemical model of gold mineralization on Iochiminskaya area (Yenisei Ridge)

Article preview

Most of the gold deposits of the Yenisei Ridge are concentrated in the Central Yenisei gold-bearing belt. The gold manifestation was first identified east of the Ishimbinsky fault. Geochemical studies in this area revealed powerful gold and arsenic anomalies. These anomalies are due to the contact of heterogeneous surrounding media and are located within the tectonic zones of folding and mineralization. This occurrence is similar to gold-quartz type models in most parameters, but is characterized by a low degree of metamorphism. A large gold ore formation with a potential resource of 81 tons is expected to be discovered in this area.
