- W2904997510 abstract "Gold occurs as a native metal, usually containing silver, and in some cases mercury, copper, and palladium. It may also occur as inclusions within sulfur-rich minerals, such as pyrite and arsenopyrite. The style and variety of gold mineralization is influenced by the geological setting, chemistry of the ore fluids, and the nature of their interactions with rocks. Gold grains liberated from bedrock into surficial sediments during weathering and erosion are chemically stable and may be characterized according to their mineralogy: i.e the alloy composition and suite of mineral inclusions revealed within polished sections, characteristics faithful to gold from the hypogene source. This approach has been applied to placer gold grains from the Meyos-Essabikoula area, Cameroon, where the source of gold is not yet confirmed due to poor outcrop exposure. A total of 221 alluvial gold grains from 10 sites, tributaries of Sing and Bivele River over the Ntem Complex have been studied using Electron Probe Micro-Analysis (EMPA) to determine the concentration of minor alloying metals, (notably Au, Ag, Cu, and Hg) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) in order to evaluate the assemblage of mineral inclusions within the gold. Most of the grains are sub-rounded with pitted surfaces and inclusions of pyrrhotite, acanthite, and chalcopyrite were observed. The grains are AuAg alloys ranging from 54.4 to 99.8 wt% Au, 0.1–48.4 wt% Ag, 0.1–0.8 wt% Hg and 0–0.3 wt% Cu. The presence of Fe oxide (magnetite) inclusions containing Cr and V (to around 5 wt %) has not been reported elsewhere and suggests a strong interaction between hot reducing ore fluids and local mafic lithologies." @default.
