Epithermal precious metal deposits physicochemical constraints, classification characteristics and exploration guidelines

Epithermal deposits include a broad range of precious metal, base metal, mercury, and stibnite deposits. These deposits exhibit a low temperature of formation (180-280°C) at pressures of less than a few hundred bars (equivalent to depths of 1.5 - 2.0lkm). Epithermal gold deposits are the product of...
