A review of Pb-Sb(As)-S, Cu(Ag)-Fe(Zn)-Sb(As)-S, Ag(Pb)-Bi(Sb)-S and Pb-Bi-S(Te) sulfosalt systems from the Boranja orefield, West Serbia
Recent mineralogical, chemical, physical, and crystallographic investigations of the Boranja orefield showed very complex mineral associations and assemblages where sulfosalts have significant role. The sulfosalts of the Boranja orefield can be divided in four main groups: (i) Pb-Sb(As)-S s...

Summary: | Recent mineralogical, chemical, physical, and crystallographic investigations
of the Boranja orefield showed very complex mineral associations and
assemblages where sulfosalts have significant role. The sulfosalts of the
Boranja orefield can be divided in four main groups: (i) Pb-Sb(As)-S system
with ±Fe and ±Cu; (ii) Cu(Ag)-Fe(Zn)-Sb(As)-S system; (iii) Ag(Pb)-Bi(Sb)-S;
(iv) and Pb-Bi-S(Te) system. Spatially, these sulfosalts are widely spread,
however, they are the most abundant in the following polymetallic deposits
and ore zones: Cu(Bi)-FeS Kram-Mlakva; Pb(Ag)-Zn-FeS2 Veliki Majdan
(Kolarica-Centralni revir-Kojići); Sb-Zn-Pb-As Rujevac; and Pb-Zn-FeS2-BaSO4
Bobija. The multi stage formation of minerals, from skarnhydrothermal to
complex hydrothermal with various stages and sub-stages has been determined.
All hydrothermal stages and sub-stages of various polymetallic deposits and
ore zones within the Boranja orefield are followed by a variety of
sulfosalts. [Projekat Ministarstva nauke Republike Srbije, br. OI-176016:
