Abstract

When searching for sulfide ores, sulfur is usually not determined in lithochemical samples. Meanwhile, with clark values in the lithosphere of 0.047%, its content in sulfide ores reaches tens of percent. Thus, in samples of sulfide copper-nickel ores of the Allarechensky and Monchegorsk districts of the Kola Peninsula, up to 27–33% of sulfur was found, and in samples of pyrrhotite ores of the Allarechensky district, 20–26%.
