Direct dating of overprinting fluid systems in the Martabe epithermal gold deposit using highly retentive alunite

Abstract: Abstract. The Martabe deposits in Sumatra, Indonesia formed in a shallow crustal epithermal environment (200–350 °C) associated with mafic intrusions, usually recognised in domes, adjacent to an active right-lateral wrench system. Ten samples containing alunite were collected for high-resolution geochronology, to determine if overprinting fluid systems could be recognised by dating alunite separates. The heating time for each step was chosen to ensure reasonable uniformity in terms of the incremental percentag… Show more

“…Result tables for each step heating experiment are given in Reid and Forster (2022). Weighted mean ages from selected steps are calculated in the case of three or more steps forming a coherent grouping based on Pearson's chi statistic to assess whether the scatter remains within the 95 % confidence limit and calculated using the software eArgon (see Muston et al, 2021, for detailed description of statistical methods).…”

“…In this respect, we utilise a similar methodology to Dallmeyer et al (1988), who analysed whole rock slate and phyllite samples via furnace step heating. However, here we apply a care-ful heating schedule for our ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) step heating experiments, utilising a larger number of increments in the step-heating schedule to carefully resolve any variations in age within the sample (thereby applying methods similar to Forster and Lister, 2009;Muston et al, 2021).…”

“…Kula et al, 2010;Clauer, 2013) or, in the case of single minerals or grains, as a result of different gas domains having a range of diffusion properties (e.g. Lovera et al, 1989;Muston et al, 2021). As discussed by Forster and Lister (2004), the upper asymptote of a staircase age spectrum is the minimum age for crystallisation of the sample and conversely, the lower asymptote is a maximum age for either a less retentive domain within the sample, or a geological resetting event (Fig.…”
