Казымов К.П., Бадьянова И.В., Синкина И.В.
It is found that Tykotlovsk gold-polymetallic mineralization is confined to the top of the volcanic cover of metasomatically altered rhyolite of Tykotlov unit. The complex of modern methods of precision mineral investigation is used. The form of gold particles corresponds to usual ore gold. It/ is rather complex and has got varied surface. The most gold particles are classified as thin metal. The majority of pan samples from alluvial, deluvial, proluvial, eluvial sediments has the definit gold content (from 2.8 to 436.7 mg/m3). The chemical composition of gold is very diverse. The main part belongs to electrum and only a small number of grains (5%) is- a silvery gold.
