Antimony Mobilisation and Attenuation During Ore Processing at Orogenic …
The Reefton sulfide concentrate was transported 700 km to the Macraes orogenic gold mine (active from 1990) for processing through a pressure oxidation autoclave at 225 °C. The Macraes ore has low Sb contents, so the temporary introduction of a Sb-rich component produced a short-term Sb signal in the autoclave system and tailings waters.

The Jinchang deposit, Ailaoshan Belt, is a hydrothermal gold-nickel deposit in which nickel mineralization formed during Triassic accretionary orogeny and gold mineralization during Miocene collisional orogeny. Although the nickel and gold orebodies largely overlap in an ophiolite melange at the contacts between ultramafic and metasedimentary sequences, nickel …

High-grade (> 10 g/t) gold mineralization in orogenic gold deposits is of significant economic importance. Understanding the formation of such enriched ore zones is critical for gold exploration success.
