Iron hydroxides is indirect indicator for the detection of golden epidermal mineralization

Abstract

The results of search and evaluation work on the Kremovaya license area (Central Chukotka) are demonstrated. In the course of field work, a stream was discovered, on the bottom and banks of which iron hydroxides are abundantly deposited, as well as outcrops of highly hardened rocks. The aim of the study is to study the relationship between the presence of iron hydroxides and gold epithermal mineralization. The behavior of gold in the process of destruction and dissolution of the root source – epithermal ores is described. Brownstone formations are considered as an indirect indicator for the detection of golden epidermal mineralization.
