“…Of relevance to this present study is the mineral aurostibite (AuSb 2 ), a member of the pyrite group where gold is alloyed with antimony and was first described by Graham and Kaiman (1952) from the Giant mine at Yellowknife, Northwest Territories and the Chesterville mine of Ontario, Canada, both being quartz-vein hosted orogenic gold deposits (Shelton et al , 2004; Ispolatov et al , 2008). Since then, it has been described from many deposits including, but not restricted to, the quartz-vein hosted orogenic Mobale gold mine, Kivu, Democratic Republic of Congo (Jedwab et al 1992; Milesi et al , 2006), metamorphosed Sulitjelma VMS deposit of northern Norway (Cook, 1992, 1996), quartz-vein hosted orogenic Kharma Sb deposit of Bolivia (Dill et al , 1995), quartz-vein hosted orogenic West Gore Sb-Au deposit of Nova Scotia, Canada (Kontak et al , 1996), hydrothermal quartz-vein hosted Hillgrove gold-antimony deposit of northeastern NSW, Australia (Ashley et al , 2000), intrusion-related Au–Sb A deposit of New Brunswick, Canada (Cabri et al , 2007; Deschenes et al , 2009; Ravenelle et al , 2008; Watters et al , 2008), intrusion-related Darasun deposit of Eastern Transbaikal, Russia (Bryzgalov et al , 2007; Spiridonov et al , 2010), quartz-vein hosted orogenic Passagem de Mariana gold mine, Brazil (Oberthur and Weiser, 2008), carbonaceous clastic sediment-hosted Suzdal gold deposit of eastern Kazakhstan (Kovalev et al , 2009), metamorphosed mafic-ultramafic hosted orogenic Lapa deposit, Abitibi Belt, Canada (Simard et al , 2013; Jebrak et al , 2016), intrusion-related Mokrsko-West gold deposit of the Bohemian Massif, Czech Republic (Zacharias et al , 2014), metavolcanic hosted Pirunkoukku gold occurrence of northern Finland (Novoselov et al , 2015), the Krasna Hora deposit of the Czech Republic (Zacharias and Nemec, 2017), and most recently, the intrusion-related Oleninskoe Au–Ag deposit of the Kola Peninsula, Russia (Kalinin et al , 2019).…”
