Alunite and high sulfidation gold-silver-copper mineralization in the El Indio-Pascua Belt, Chile-Argentina

High sulfidation precious-metal deposits, one of the principal styles of epithermal mineralization, are characterized by minerals diagnostic of a high sulfidation state (pyrite, enargite) and acidic hydrothermal conditions, particularly alunite (KAl₃(SO₄)₂(OH)₆) and alunite-group minerals. One of...
