Information collected on deposits, ore occurrences, and lead and zinc mineralization points known within the Yenisei Ridge is provided. A summary of the latest data on the geology and metallogeny of lead and zinc in the region is presented. A brief description of the deposits is given and their ore formation typification is carried out. The position of deposits in a stratigraphic section, the relationship with geological formations and tectonic structures, and subsequent conclusions about deposit location patterns and metallogenic zonality of the area were examined. The position analysis of polymetallic mineralization in regional geophysical and geochemical field revealed the presence of lead → zinc → barium trend from the Ishimbinsk fault towards the Siberian platform and the potential discovery of economically significant polymetallic mineralization in the eastern Yenisei Ridge.

The paper shows the main characteristics for geological and associated ore formations in the Tungusik formation complex. Ore formation deposit types and ore field types in the region are identified and described. Based on the identified lithofacies, the paleoenvironment of stratiform ore associations formation is characterized. The role of metamorphism and structural factors affecting prospecting conditions are shown. The relationship between the mineral type of ores and organic carbon content in ore-bearing strata for various geological and economic types has been revealed. The obtained and generalized data are of practical interest in designing forecasting/prospecting deposit models and improving prospecting efficiency.

Tectonic evolution of the Earth is a principle global factor responsible for uneven distribution of lead and zinc reserves in geological time. Cyclic changes in productivity of lead-zinc ore-formation processes resulted from periodical amalgamation of most blocks of continental crust, formation, stabilization and final break-up of supercontinents. Many features of age spectrums of lead and zinc reserves are caused by gradual increase of volume of continental crust resulting from accretion of island arcs to ancient cratons, widening of distribution of ensialic environments of ore-formation and increasing role of continental crust in magmatic processes.

The paper discusses the lithological and facial features of the terrigenous-carbonate (biohermic) ore-bearing geological formation of the Moryanikho-Merkurikhinskoye ore field (Yenisei Ridge), which hosts stratiform lead-zinc deposits in carbonate strata. Ore-hosting lithofacies and their paleostructural position are characterized. Based on the previous studies, as well as the author’s own materials obtained as a result of field work, the main favorable lithological, facial and structural factors for hosting Moryanikhinsky-type stratiform lead-zinc mineralization are defined: the presence of paleodepressions within the shelf zone; development of carbonate rocks – dolomites, stromatolite dolomites and limestones, which are biohermic structures on the slopes of paleo-uplifts; the presence of an admixture of tuffaceous material in terrigenous rock varieties. The influence of tectonic faults on the formation of ore deposits and the morphology of ore bodies is indicated. The main types of ores of the Moryanikho- Merkurikhinsky ore field, as well as their mineral composition are described. The paper discusses the main ore types, as well as their mineral composition typical of the Moryanikho-Merkurikhinskoye ore field. The largest and well-studied lead and zinc stratiform Moryanikhinskoye deposit and Merkurikhinskoye ore occurrence located within the ore field are briefly characterized. The Moryanikhinskoye deposit is a typical example for searching for stratiform deposits of lead and zinc in the carbonate strata of the Angara-Bolshepitskaya mineragenic zone, which is of practical interest in developing predictive prospecting models of deposits and improving the efficiency of prospecting.

The region of the Ribeira Valley is known for its metallic sulphide deposits (lead, zinc, copper, silver and gold), being the major lead producer of the Brazil in the 1950s. Since then, it has become the target of several geological studies from which two models of lead and zinc mineralization known as Perau and Panelas models were proposed. This study is particularly interested in the Panelas model, which is characterized by its vein morphology, association with carbonate rocks and structural control. Based on literature, this paper proposes to verify the applicability of the hierarchical analysis process (AHP) as auxiliary of the geographic information system (GIS) in the favorability mapping of hydrothermal veins-type Pb deposits which fit in the Panelas model. The study area is the western region of the Ribeira Valley, located in the southern portion of the São Paulo State, Brazil. In order to perform this work, four parameters were used: geological structure, stratigraphy, lithology and geochemistry. The result obtained highlights areas corresponding to Mina de Furnas, Bairro da Serra and Água Clara Formations as highly favorable areas to lead mineralization according this model. In addition, it shows the negative association of these geological formations with potassium concentration.

AbstractCollector type and pulp pH play an important role in the lead–zinc ore flotation process. In the current study, the effect of pulp pH and the collector type parameters on the galena and sphalerite flotation from a complex lead–zinc–iron ore was investigated. The ethyl xanthate and Aero 3418 collectors were used for lead flotation and Aero 3477 and amyl xanthate for zinc flotation. It was found that maximum lead grade could be achieved by using Aero 3418 as collector at pH 8. Also, iron and zinc recoveries and grades were increased in the lead concentrate at lower pH which caused zinc recovery reduction in the zinc concentrate and decrease the lead grade concentrate. Furthermore, the results showed that the maximum zinc grade and recovery of 42.9% and 76.7% were achieved at pH 6 in the presence of Aero 3477 as collector. For both collectors at pH 5, Zinc recovery was increased around 2–3%; however, the iron recovery was also increased at this pH which reduced the zinc concentrate quality. Finally, pH 8 and pH 6 were selected as optimum pH values for lead and zinc flotation circuits, respectively.

The gold and platinum-group elements (PGE) mineralization of the Guli and Kresty intrusions was formed in the process of polyphase magmatism of the central type during the Permian and Triassic age. It is suggested that native osmium and iridium crystal nuclei were formed in the mantle at earlier high-temperature events of magma generation of the mantle substratum in the interval of 765–545 Ma and were brought by meimechite melts to the area of development of magmatic bodies. The pulsating magmatism of the later phases assisted in particle enlargement. Native gold was crystallized at a temperature of 415–200 °C at the hydrothermal-metasomatic stages of the meimechite, melilite, foidolite and carbonatite magmatism. The association of minerals of precious metals with oily, resinous and asphaltene bitumen testifies to the genetic relation of the mineralization to carbonaceous metasomatism. Identifying the carbonaceous gold and platinoid ore formation associated genetically with the parental formation of ultramafic, alkaline rocks and carbonatites is suggested.

The relationship between energy input and particle size of ore samples after crushing and effect of microwave pretreatment on impact crushing of lead-zinc ore were studied by drop weight impact test. The results showed that the lead-zinc ore became softer and had higher degree of crushing after microwave pretreatment. Compared with continuous microwave pretreatment, pulsed microwave pretreatment could improve the drop weight impact crushing efficiency of lead-zinc ore. When the specific comminution energy were 5 kW h/t, 10 kW h/t respectively, the crushing characteristic parameters t10 were 60.42% and 67.46% respectively by continuous microwave. But the values of t10 were increased to 68.64% and 75.88% respectively after pulsed microwave radiation under same microwave power and time. In addition, water quenching could more promote the impact crushing efficiency of lead-zinc ore after microwave irradiation.
