Study on pyrite thermoelectricity, ore-forming fluids and H-O-Rb-Sr isotopes of the Yongxin gold deposit, Central Asian Orogenic Belt: Implications for ore genesis and exploration

The Yongxin gold deposit is one of the prominent gold deposits in the Duobaoshan gold-copper metallogenic belt within the eastern domain of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt. The deposit has recently been discovered therefore, its genesis and economic significance remain unknown. Here, we present the results of pyrite thermoelectricity, fluid inclusion and H-O-Rb-Sr isotopic studies of different minerals with a view to decipher ore genesis and ore...
