加拿大加斯帕半岛阿巴拉契亚山脉SAR卡林型金矿化V. Garnier& M. Malo& B. Dubé& A. Chagnon&G. BeaudoinAbstract:在加拿大加斯帕半岛阿巴拉契亚山脉中发育有大量的矿化，这些矿点在空间上均与the Grand Pabos and Restigouche这两个断裂有关。
在这些矿化点中，SAR-Au矿相比于卡林型金矿来说，在区域上、地区上和探区范围上（regional, district, and prospect scales）表现出特有的特征。
其中最显著的是：（1）钙质的赋矿岩性；（2）富Au-As-Sb-Hg，贫贱金属和Ag为特征；（3）与地壳范围内的断裂带有关；（4）热液蚀变特征：在含金矿化带（Au-bearing zones）的边缘发育有硅化（silicification）、方解石（calcite）、石英细脉（quartz veinlets），在大型的泥蚀变晕中发育有高岭石；（5）许多的长英质岩脉；（6）Au赋存于在初期成矿作用形成的贫As黄铁矿（As-free pyrite）的核部生长形成的富As黄铁矿（As-rich pyrite）中以及毒砂中；（7）在高温（>200°）热液流体与母岩相平衡，首先温度下降冷却使得毒砂发生沉淀，之后热液中混入大量的演化过的大气降水进而导致辉锑矿脉的沉淀形成。
尽管SAR-Au矿化表现出相当地微粒细小，但是类比于卡林型金矿化，……..（encourage exploration in the GaspéPeninsula and insimilar settings elsewhere in the Appalachians.）Keywords：SAR-Au showing、卡林型金矿、加拿大阿巴拉契亚山脉Introduction加拿大阿巴拉契亚山脉的主断裂发育有许多典型的金矿化（Gauthier et al. 1994; Swinden and Dunsworth 1995），其中包含有许多在空间上与加斯珀半岛the Grand Pabos and Restigouche这两个断裂有关的矿化（Fig. 1; Savard 1985; Malo et al. 1993）。
