WhatsApp: +86 18221755073Simultaneous entrapment of aqueous and carbonic inclusions in auriferous laminated quartz veins in different gold deposits (e.g., Zhu et al., 2001, Pal and Mishra, 2002) was due to unmixing of an initial H 2 O–CO 2 fluid at lower temperature. Accordingly, gold precipitation was primarily due to a decrease in S in the aqueous part, a ...
