Metallogeny of orogenic gold deposits

这个为期5年的研究计划分为4个主题，解决重要问题，以确保长期和有弹性的金矿开采，提供下一代知识，了解造山金矿床的形成，并使用指示矿物和现场便携式仪器开发创新的勘探方法。专题1将调查重要金矿存款区的岩石学和变质背景，以便更好地确定区域目标。专题2将研究形成金矿床的热液流体的起源，溶液中携带金和伴生金属的配体的起源，并通过原位地质年代学确定含金热液事件的详细时间。专题3将制定创新性的指示矿物方法，以改进合作伙伴的勘探工具箱，并采用地球化学标准来确定指纹、引导寻找金矿并评估金矿化的肥力，以便有效地瞄准存款规模。专题4将利用现场便携式仪器（LIBS、SWIR）开发勘探方法，以快速取得成果，并利用高效、灵活的工具箱保持和提高加拿大矿产勘探部门的优势。

The 5-year research program is divided into 4 themes that address important issues to ensure long-term andresilient gold mining in providing next generation knowledge to understand the formation of orogenic golddeposits and to develop innovative exploration methodologies using indicator minerals and field portableinstruments. Theme 1 will investigate the petrologic and metamorphic setting of important gold deposit areas to enable better regional targeting. Theme 2 will study the origin of the hydrothermal fluids that formed thegold deposits, of the ligands that carry gold and associated metals in solution, and determine the detailedtiming of the gold-bearing hydrothermal events by in situ geochronology. Theme 3 will develop innovativeindicator mineral methodologies to improve the exploration toolbox of the partners with geochemical criteria to fingerprint, vector towards oreshoots, and assess fertility for gold mineralization for efficient targeting at the deposit scale. Theme 4 will develop exploration methodologies using field portable instruments (LIBS, SWIR) for rapid results that will maintain and increase the edge of the Canadian mineral exploration sector withefficient, flexible toolboxes.
