Mineralogy of Zn–Hg–S and Hg–Se–S Series Minerals in Carbonate-Hosted Mercury Deposits in Western Hunan, South China

Abstract: Among the Zn-Hg-S and Hg-Se-S series minerals, Hg-bearing sphalerite and metacinnabar are uncommon in ore deposits, but they are useful indicators of temporal variation of ore forming fluids, as well as presenting metallurgical implications for Hg-bearing deposits. To understand the Hg-Zn-Se mineralization system of the Tongren-Fenghuang Hg Belt (TFHB), the Zn-Hg-S and Hg-Se-S series minerals of the Chashula Hg-Zn and Dongping Hg-Ag-Se carbonate-hosted deposits were studied by microscopic observation, electron… Show more

“…In the south-eastern Yangtze Block, carbonate-hosted Hg deposits are Hg-only deposits or related to Pb-Zn mineralisation, with Zn ore zones being better developed close to mineralisation along faults, such as the Chashula, Chatian, and Dadongla Hg-Pb-Zn deposits (Figure 1; Liu et al, 2017). These deposits may also contain Ba-F mineralisation and are generally hosted in Cambrian to Ordovician carbonate rocks.…”

“…The instrument was tuned to ThO/Th ratios of <0.3% and U/Th ratios of ~100%, doubly charged cations were tuned to <0.4% using SRM NIST610, and SRM NIST612 as unknown. The measured isotopes were: 24 Mg, 27 Al, 28 Si, 33 S, 34 S, 39 K, 43 Ca, 44 Ca, 51 V, 52 Cr, 55 Mn, 56 Fe, 57 Fe, 59 Co, 60 Ni, 65 Cu, 66 Zn, 70 Ge, 71 Ga, 75 As, 82 Se, 95 Mo, 107 Ag, 111 Cd, 115 In, 121 Sb, 125 Te, 197 Au, 202 Hg, 205 Tl, 208 Pb, 209 Bi and 238 U.…”

“…Although sphalerite with medium or high Hg contents and Zn-bearing metacinnabar in complex sulfide deposits are often found worldwide and have been largely studied [1,3,4,[79][80][81][82], some issues remain unresolved, such as Hg incorporation into the ZnS structure, Hg valence, or ranges of (Zn,Hg)S cub and (Hg,Zn)S cub solid solutions [1,3,83].…”
