On the degree of erosion of one of the Yakutian gold ore fields according to geochemical data
Abstract
The deposit is confined to the southern periclinal closure of the anticline, composed of a monotonous thickness of calcareous-clay siltstones and shales. The rocks are characterized by abundance of pyrite and marcasite nodules. The rocks are not characterized faunistically, but lithologically they parallel the Kukkan Formation of the Lower Permian of the unified stratigraphic scheme of the Southern Verkhoyany. The mineralization is localized in crushing and buckling zones of near meridional strike and in quartz veins of near-latitudinal strike. Both have a steep dip at an angle of 70-80°; the zones are westward, and the veins are northward ...
