Learn how these metallic minerals interact with heat and underground fluids, forming the bedrock of your favorite precious metal. Watch as we break down the transformation of sulfides over time, revealing their crucial role in gold concentration. Whether you're a geology enthusiast or just curious about ore formation, this quick guide is perfect for you!
Sulfides and Gold – Unlocking the Core of Gold-Bearing Systems
Gold doesn’t travel alone—it rides with sulfides. This advanced video series breaks down the science and field application of sulfide minerals like pyrite, chalcopyrite, and arsenopyrite—the metallic compounds that form the foundation of many of the richest gold zones on Earth.
In this 5-part class, we go step-by-step through the formation, identification, oxidation, and enrichment processes that make sulfides essential to gold discovery. You’ll learn how to spot them in the field, test them in rock, and trace their transformation into supergene enrichment zones beneath oxidized caps.
Whether you’re exploring fault zones, breccia pipes, or quartz-veined shear structures, these lessons give you the tools to interpret sulfide signals and follow the gold where others miss it.
