The gold mineralisation usually occurs at the contact between the veins and wallrocks. Most of the ore in these deposits is of the disseminated type with the gold mineralisation generally being invisible to the naked eye. The formation of these deposits is linked to regional-scale processes at mid-crustal levels during regional metamorphism.

The probability of all six factors in the ore-forming system being optimized (high heat flow, large fluid reservoir, proximity to major structure, efficient fluid focussing, and large and compositionally favourable host lithology) is extremely small.

This highly erosion- resistant quartzite ridge forms the north side of the Witwatersrand goldfields, a 300-kilometer-wide ancient sedimentary basin containing the metropolis of Johannesburg with a population of 3.8 million. The ridge also forms a continental divide.

Acid mine drainage (AMD) caused by the oxidation of sulphide minerals found in mine waste is a global environmental concern, especially in water-restricted countries with heavy mining industries. Implementing AMD treatment and prevention programs can be extremely expensive, hence the need to identify environmentally sustainable treatment and …

Scheelite is a widespread accessory tungstate mineral that contains a variety of trace elements. Scheelites from the major types of magmatic-hydrothermal mineral deposits (86 deposits, including quartz-vein and greisen, porphyry, skarn and orogenic Au deposits) have been collected and analyzed using laser ablation-inductively coupled …

The abundance of evidence for hydrothermal alteration in the Witwatersrand basin does not in itself, however, give any indication as to the ultimate source of the hydrothermal gold, pyrite,...

The formation of world-class Archean orogenic gold deposits in the Eastern Goldfields Province of Western Australia was the result of a critical combination of physical and chemical processes that modified a single and widespread ore-fluid along fluid pathways and at the sites of gold deposition.

1. Introduction The genesis of vein-type to disseminated gold deposits, broadly classified as orogenic gold deposits ( Groves et al., 1998, Goldfarb et al., 2005) has remained controversial. The genetic models for these deposits were evaluated in a recent review by Goldfarb and Groves (2015).

Against this background, the current paper aims to assess the impact of the new legislation on social and economic conditions in an area of mining decline, the Free State Goldfields of South Africa (see Fig. 1).The paper builds on the work by Nel and Binns (2002) and investigates whether the new legislation has played a role in improving the …
