Приведены результаты металлогенического анализа новых данных, полученных в ходе проведения геолого-поисковых и региональных геофизических работ на территории Донецкого бассейна, представляющего центральный фрагмент Днепрово-Донецкой рифтогенной системы. По результатам металлогенического анализа и математической обработки геофизических данных, включающих оригинальную технологию объектно-ориентированной фильтрации, установлены полихронность и полигенность золотого оруденения, соответствующие полиэтапному развитию Донецкого авлакогена. В составе золотоносных руд вычленяются два основных типа: 1) крупнообъемные зоны и залежи золото-сульфидно-прожилково-вкрапленной минерализации в песчанико-сланцевых углеродистых толщах, относящихся к осадочно-(метаморфогенно)-гидротермальному генетическому классу, связанные с литогенезом и метаморфизмом каменноугольных углеродистых отложений на доорогенном этапе развития авлакогена (Бобриковское и др. месторождения) 2) эпитермальные кварцевые жилы и локальные жильно-прожилковые зоны золото-серебряно-полиметаллической минерализации, связанные с развитием вулкано-плутонических аппаратов центрального типа на этапе мезозойской тектоно-магматической активизации авлакогена, выделяемые по геофизическим данным (Керчикское и др. рудопроявления). Отнесение к осадочно-(метаморфогенно)-гидротермальному генетическому классу золотоносных минерализаций бобриковского типа обосновано особенностями локализации, размещения и вещественного состава руд, а также особенностями геологического строения Донбасса, свойственными классическим рудным районам с подобным типом оруденения в углеродисто-терригенных (черносланцевых) формациях: внутриконтинентальная позиция складчатых структур и отсутствие гранитоидного магматизма, отчетливо выраженная асимметрия складчато-разрывных структур, сочетание углеродисто-терригенных и карбонатных формаций различной степени их постседиментационного преобразования, наличие стратифицированной сульфидной минерализации. Выделение мезозойских вулкано-плутонических структур центрального типа, с которыми связана эпитермальная золотоносная минерализация керчикского типа, основано на выявлении изометричных положительных аномалий магнитного поля, сопряженных с изометричными отрицательными аномалиями гравитационного поля, а также выходами магматических пород. Выявленные в Западном Донбассе к настоящему времени золотоносные руды бобриковского типа представляют собой объекты ранней доорогенной минерализации золото-сульфидно-прожилково-вкрапленного типа в углеродисто-терригенных комплексах. Выявленные в Восточном Донбассе к настоящему времени золото-серебряно-полиметаллические руды керчикского типа представляют собой позднепродуктивную стадию, связанную с регенерацией и перераспределением доорогенных золотоносных минерализаций на этапе мезозойской тектоно-магматической активизации The results of a metallogenic analysis of new data obtained during geological exploration and regional geophysical work in the Donets basin, which is the central fragment of the Dnieper-Donetsk riftogenic system, are presented. According to the results of metallogenic analysis and mathematical processing of geophysical data, including the original technology of object-oriented filtering, the polychronism and polygenicity of gold mineralization is established, corresponding to the poly-phased development of Donetsk aulacogen. In the composition of gold ores, two main types are distinguished: 1) large-volume zones and stratiform deposits of gold-sulfide-vein-disseminated mineralization in sandy-shale carbon strata, belonging to sedimentary (metamorphic) -hydrothermal genetic class, associated with lithogenesis and metamorphism of stony-carbon metamorphism at the preorogenic stage of development of aulacogen (Bobrikovskoye and other deposits) 2) epithermal quartz veins and local vein-vein zones of gold-silver-polymetallic mineralization associated with the development of central-type volcanic-plutonic apparatuses at the stage of Mesozoic tectonic-magmatic activation of aulacogen, identified according to geophysical data (Kerchik and other ore occurrences). The assignment to the sedimentary (metamorphogenic) -hydrothermal genetic class of Bobrikovsky type gold-bearing mineralizations is justified by the features of localization, distribution and material composition of the ores, as well as the peculiarities of the geological structure of the Donbass, characteristic of classical ore regions with a similar type of mineralization in carbon-terrigenous (black shale) formations the position of folded structures and the absence of granitoid magmatism, a pronounced asymmetry of folded-discontinuous structures, with the carbon-terrigenous and carbonate formations of varying degrees of their post-sedimentation transformation, the presence of stratified sulfide mineralization. The isolation of the Mesozoic volcanic-plutonic structures of the central type, which are associated with the zythermal gold-bearing mineralization of the Kerchik type, is based on the detection of isometric positive anomalies of the magnetic field, coupled with isometric negative anomalies of the gravitational field, as well as the outputs of igneous rocks. Gold-bearing ores of the Bobrikov type identified in the Western Donbass to date are objects of early pre -ogenic mineralization of a gold-sulfide-vein-disseminated type in carbon-terrigenous complexes. The gold-silver-polymetallic ores of the Kerchik type discovered in the East Donbass to date represent a late-productive stage associated with the regeneration and redistribution of pre -ogenic gold-bearing mineralizations at the stage of Mesozoic tectonic-magmatic activation

The article discusses the geological structure of the Baikal deposit, located within the Kumak ore field and confined to the black shale of the Bredy Formation (C1bd). It has been established that the gold mineralization within the occurrence is confined mainly to the members of quartz-mica-tourmaline metasomatically altered carbonaceous shales. Gold is noted here in intergrowth with tourmaline. In terms of their chemical composition, tourmalines belong to dravite and foitite and are close to those of orogenic gold and gold-sulfide deposits. The close intergrowth of thin needle- like tourmaline and gold indicates the synchrony of their formation and allows the manifestation of Baikal deposit to be attributed to the quartz-tourmaline formation.

The Elegest-Mezhegei, Aptara, and Shivilig forecasted gold ore clusters and the Kharalyg and Irbitei forecasted gold-silver-polymetallic ore clusters were distinguished within the East Tannu-Ola iron-copper-polymetallic-gold ore region, based on examination of historical and new geological, geochemical, and metallogenical data. Subsequently, the Urgailyg, Proezdnoe, and Chumurtuk forecasted gold ore fields were delineated within the Elegest-Mezhegei cluster; the Despen ore field was delineated within the Aptara ore cluster; and the Ovur-Ongesh ore field was outlined within the Shivilig cluster. In addition, the Ulug-Sailyg and Ak-Charinsk gold-molybdenum-copper ore fields were distinguished outside the ore clusters. The article summarizes the investigation history, geological-structural position, geological features, and geochemical specialization of the rocks of the East Tannu-Ola region. Descriptions of the ore clusters embrace peculiarities of their geological structure, ore mineralogy, and native gold, as well as parameters of the gold-sulfide-quartz, goldskarn, gold-containing polymetallic VMS, and porphyry molybdenum-copper mineralized zones. The conclusions highlight the metallogenic epochs and distribution regularities of the gold and gold-containing mineralization within the region studied.

Abstract The leading role in the placement of gold mineralization in the Bukantau mountains belongs to structural and lithological factors. For gold-ore and gold-silver occurrences, sandy-shale strata of the flyschoid and olistostrome formations are favorable, then, rocks of the volcanogenic-dolomite-siliceous formation and then the carbonate formation (Okzhetpes type). The leading types of near-ore hydrothermal alteration of the host rocks in the studied deposits are silicification and, to a lesser extent, carbonatization and sericitization. They are accompanied by chloritization, biotitization, argillization, etc. Gold ore deposits and ore occurrences of sulfide-disseminated ores are confined mainly to the deposits of the Karashakh suite of the Middle Carboniferous (C2b + m1 kr). Moreover, gold-sulfide mineralization in the rocks of the Karashakh Formation is unevenly distributed.

The formation conditions and characteristics of secondary dispersion haloes in the gold-bearing weathering crust of a gold-sulfide-quartz deposit are considered. The fraction < 0,1mm is demonstrated to be preferable for lithochemical prospecting for the Vasilkovskoe type gold mineralization. The secondary dispersion haloes of gold, identified based on analyses of this fraction, are characterized by the maximum size and productivity.

Typomorphic features of placer gold of conglomerates of the Ortokinskaya formation of the Early Permian age (P1or) of the Sololiy Uplift of the Olenek High and modern channel alluvium of the Ortoku Eekit river, which drains these deposits, are studied. It is found that extremely heterogeneous composition and complex inner structure are typical features of the vast majority of gold of the Permian conglomerates. There are several stages of different fineness (from 251‰ to 999‰) within a single gold particle, as a result, gold has a mosaic-block inner structure. It is proposed that such heterogeneity is formed due to epigenetic transformations of primary medium-grade gold in an intermediate reservoir of the Permian age, and also under influence of superposed hydrothermal mineralization with low-grade gold, related to the processes of the Mesozoic tectonomagmatic activation. The latter is indicated by the discovery of impregnated gold-sulfide mineralization in the Permian conglomerates. Ore mineralization is represented by gold, silver, pyrite, sphalerite, chalcopyrite, galena, argentite, native tin, and barite. Association mineralization to thin tectonic zones of conglomerate fragmentation, suggests that superposed gold-sulfide hydrothermal mineralization of impregnated type was formed as a result of manifestations of the Mesozoic tectonomagmatic activation, when gold-bearing hydrothermal solutions migrated in faults. It is determined that auriferous conglomerates of the Ortokinskaya formation of the Permian age were major sources of placer gold of modern alluvium in the studied part of the Ortoku Eekit.

The history of the discovery, development and study of the Kirovskyi gold ore deposit in the Priamur gold-bearing province is considered. The deposit is attributed to the gold-bismuth type of vein deposits of the gold-sulfide-quartz formation. Gold mineralization is genetically related to the formation of the Dzhalinda intrusion of Early Cretaceous granitoids or a series of later dikes of «variegated» composition. The isotopic age of gold mineralization, determined by the Rb-Sr method, is in the fork 131-126 Ma. Further prospects of the deposit are associated with the search for large-volume deposits with stockwork type ore bodies.

Purpose. To perform the lithological-facies dismemberment of the Rudov Beds using geological and well-logging data to clarify the formation genesis of the hydrocarbon sources deposits within the Yablunivska structure of the Dnieper-Donets basin. Methodology. Cluster and factor analysis methods were used as well as Q.Passys method of well logging data interpretation for estimating the content of organic carbon (TOC). Findings. Regularities of geological structure, lithological heterogeneities, distribution of separate lithotypes and content of organic carbon in the Rudov Beds within Yablunivske oil and gas condensate field are established. The spatial distribution of separate facies types of rocks, thicknesses of their radioactivity layers and content of organic carbon (organic matter) within a single structure of the Dnieper-Donets depression is studied. Originality. For the first time according to geophysical data with the use of statistical methods, the lithological-facies dismemberment of the petroleum bearing strata, which have a regional distribution within the Dnieper-Donetsk basin, has been performed. It is found that there is no close correlation between natural radioactivity and the content of organic carbon in the Rudov Beds of the Lower Carboniferous. Certain conclusions have been made concerning the confirmation of the hypothesis about the formation of the Rudov beds in the conditions of shallow water desalinated sea gulf. Practical value. The proposed approach to lithological-facies dismemberment of the Rudov Beds by the well-logging data allows clarifying conditions for petroleum bearing stratum formation in order to assess its real oil and gas generation potential.

The Jinchang gold deposit is located in the eastern Yanji–Dongning Metallogenic Belt in Northeast China. The orebodies of the deposit are hosted within granite, diorite, and granodiorite, and are associated with gold-mineralized breccia pipes, disseminated gold in ores, and fault-controlled gold-bearing veins. Three paragenetic stages were identified: (1) early quartz–pyrite–arsenopyrite (stage 1); (2) quartz–pyrite–chalcopyrite (stage 2); and (3) late quartz–pyrite–galena–sphalerite (stage 3). Gold is hosted predominantly within pyrite. Pyrite separated from quartz–pyrite–arsenopyrite cement within the breccia-hosted ores (Py1) yield a Re–Os isochron age of 102.9 ± 2.7 Ma (MSWD = 0.17). Pyrite crystals from the quartz–pyrite–chalcopyrite veinlets (Py2) yield a Re–Os isochron age of 102.0 ± 3.4 Ma (MSWD = 0.2). Pyrite separated from quartz–pyrite–galena–sphalerite veins (Py3) yield a Re–Os isochron age of 100.9 ± 3.1 Ma (MSWD = 0.019). Re–Os isotopic analyses of the three types of auriferous pyrite suggest that gold mineralization in the Jinchang Deposit occurred at 105.6–97.8 Ma (includes uncertainty). The initial 187Os/188Os values of the pyrites range between 0.04 and 0.60, suggesting that Os in the pyrite crystals was derived from both crust and mantle sources.

The subject of the research is the methods of forecasting the Eastern Transbaikalia - a large mining region of Russia, in which the main internal and external criteria for ore content are established by modern geological mapping at a scale of 1:1,000,000. The article considers endogenous geochemical criteria for gold concentration in the Earth’s crust of the region, which constitute a mandatory methodological method for predicting gold ore objects at any scale. The aim of the work is to clarify the achieved level of knowledge about the mineralogical and geochemical criteria for gold concentration in the course of the evolution of the Earth’s crust up to the formation of industrial deposits and the isolation of ore formations. The methodology of the study is to systematize a huge amount of factual material concerning the processes of natural concentration of gold, to analyze its representativeness, to assess the completeness and reliability of published and stock information used to clarify the mineralogical and geochemical criteria for predicting ore gold. Using the chemical properties of gold, the forms of finding gold, amount of it in the forming geological complexes and natural environments, their evolution, distribution in structural and tectonic zones, some causes of concentration and mineralogical and geochemical prediction criteria are considered. Special attention is paid to the need to study and account for nanoscale (dispersed) gold. As the main ore-formation units of gold mineralization, standardized ore formations are defined with a division into gold ore proper, complex gold-bearing and gold-bearing and geological and industrial types of deposits. There are 15 geological and industrial types, of which 13 are transbaikal deposits standards and two are attracted from other regions. These types of deposits differ in the number of objects related to them. Due to some similarity in the composition of ore matter, geological and industrial types differ in the most important classification characteristics for the forecast. Areas of distribution of direct and indirect mineralogical and geochemical features grouped into mineralogical and geochemical forecast criteria are promising for endogenous concentration of gold mineralization
