    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orogenic_gold_deposit

    Hydrothermal gold in quartz (white mineral) vein with other gangue minerals (black minerals). Geochemical studies on gold bearing quartz-carbonate veins are important to determine temperature, pressure, at which the veins were generated, and the chemical signature of fluids.

  3. Quartz reef mining - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz_reef_mining

    Quartz reef mining is a type of gold mining in "reefs" ( veins [ 1]) of quartz . Quartz is one of the most common minerals in the Earth's crust, and most quartz veins do not carry gold, but those that have gold are avidly hunted by prospectors. In the shallow, oxidized zones of quartz reef deposits, the gold occurs in its metallic state, and is ...

  4. Epithermal vein deposit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epithermal_vein_deposit

    The epithermal vein deposit (EVP) is a type of mineral deposit that forms in the shallow subsurface, typically at depths of less than 1,500 meters below the Earth's surface. [1] These deposits are formed by hot, mineral-rich fluids that circulate through fractures and cracks in rocks. As the fluids cool, they deposit minerals, such as gold ...

  5. Quartz - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz

    Quartz is, therefore, classified structurally as a framework silicate mineral and compositionally as an oxide mineral. Quartz is the second most abundant mineral in Earth's continental crust, behind feldspar. [10] Quartz exists in two forms, the normal α-quartz and the high-temperature β-quartz, both of which are chiral. The transformation ...

  6. Congress Mine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congress_Mine

    The gold found in the mine was primarily small veins embedded in white quartz with inclusions of iron pyrite (fool's gold), iron, and sulfur. The Congress vein was considered a peculiar formation, characterized as "a dike of green stone trap." The ore ran through this dike and the dike was found throughout the entire geographical ledge.
