摘要

Silver isotopes are a potential tracer for understanding the geochemical enrichment of gold, which is monoisotopic but occurs in metallic form with silver as a stable alloy component. This study applies high-precision measurements of silver isotope ratios to two of the oldest world-class hydrothermal gold vein deposits from the Archean (3.55-3.10 Ga) Barberton greenstone belt of the Kaapvaal craton in South Africa. Published structural-geologic and geochronological results show that the hydrothermal gold deposits formed late in the tectono-metamorphic history of the greenstone belt, well after major crustal deformation and regional metamorphism, probably postdating even postorogenic granitic intrusions. Cold is concentrated in extensional brittle-ductile structures, indicating a common extensional stress field during mineralization. Orebodies occur close to the stratigraphic contact between older (ultra-)mafic submarine lavas (the Onverwacht Group) and overlying carbonaceous siltstones and graywackes (the Fig Tree Group), marked by a variably tectonized former chert. Observations at New Consort (higher temperature, close to granitoid contact), Fairview, and Sheba (lower temperature in the interior of the greenstone belt) confirm the structurally late introduction of gold into veins and sulfide replacement orebodies.
