摘要
Hydrothermal Pb-Zn deposits are widely distributed in the Liaoji metallogenic belt. The mineral assemblages and mechanism of ore metal migration and precipitation are key issues in metallogenetic study of this type of deposits. The lg[Cu2+]-pH, lg[HS-]-pH and Eh-pH phase diagrams established on the basis of thermodynamic equilibrium calculation of the mineral assemblages can effectively explain the physical and chemical conditions of ore-forming fluids and the process of migration and precipitation. This study took a typical hydrothermal Pb-Zn deposit, i.e., the Xiuyan Hongqi Pb-Zn deposit in the Liaoji metallogenic belt as an example, and calculated the thermodynamic equilibrium of the pyrite, chalcopyrite, galena and sphalerite ore mineral assemblage. The thermodynamic lg[Cu2+]-pH, lg[HS-]-pH and Eh-pH phase diagrams were established for three different temperatures, i.e., 473 K, 549 K, and 648 K. The phase diagrams showed that the mechanism of ore metal migration and precipitation and the formation of the mineral assemblages are mainly controlled by temperature, ionic activity, pH and Eh of ore-forming fluids. This study is of great significance to explain the migration and precipitation mechanism and mineral assemblages of typical hydrothermal Pb-Zn deposits in the Liaoji metallogenic belt. © 2020, Science Press.
