Trace metals in pyrite and marcasite from the Agua Rica porphyry-high sulfidation epithermal deposit, Catamarca, Argentina: Textural features and metal zoning at the porphyry to epithermal transition

TLDR
Agua Rica is a world-class Cu (Mo-Au) deposit located in Catamarca, Argentina, in which the porphyry and high sulfidation epithermal stages are juxtaposed due to the telescoping of the mineralizing system as mentioned in this paper.

Geochemical and micro-textural fingerprints of boiling in pyrite

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined pyrite geochemical and micro-textural features and relate these results to pyritic-forming processes at the active Cerro Pabellon Geothermal System (CPGS) in the Altiplano of the northern Chile.

Copper-arsenic decoupling in an active geothermal system: A link between pyrite and fluid composition

TL;DR: In this article, a trace element database of pyrite from the Tolhuaca Geothermal System (TGS) in southern Chile, a young and active hydrothermal system where fewer pyrites are present and the reservoir fluid (i.e. ore-forming fluid) is accessible.

Sulfide Minerals in Hydrothermal Deposits

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review why, where and how sulfide minerals in hydrothermal systems precipitate, and show that sulfides play a key role during magmatic crystallization in concentrating metals that subsequently may (or may not) be supplied to Hydrothermal fluids.

Abbreviations for names of rock-forming minerals

TL;DR: The list of the most common and useful rock-forming minerals likely numbers in the several hundreds as discussed by the authors, and an expansion to the list initiated by Kretz (1983) was proposed by Spear.

Iolite: Freeware for the visualisation and processing of mass spectrometric data

TL;DR: Iolite is a non-commercial software package developed to aid in the processing of inorganic mass spectrometric data, with a strong emphasis on visualisation versus time of acquisition, to provide a powerful framework for data processing and interpretation, while giving users the ability to implement their own data reduction protocols.

Gold and Trace Element Zonation in Pyrite Using a Laser Imaging Technique: Implications for the Timing of Gold in Orogenic and Carlin-Style Sediment-Hosted Deposits

TL;DR: The early enrichment of gold in arsenic-bearing syngenetic to diagenetic pyrite, within black shale facies of sedimentary basins, is proposed as a critical requirement for the later development of Carlin-style and orogenic gold deposits in sedimentary environments as discussed by the authors.

Solubility of gold in arsenian pyrite

TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported SIMS and EMPA analyses showing that As and Au contents of arsenian pyrites plot in a wedge-shaped zone with an upper compositional limit defined by the line of the line connecting the boundary of the wedge and the boundary between the zone of interest.
