英文摘要Hydrothermal fluids in orogenic and intrusion-related (mesothermal) gold deposits are dominated by saline-aqueous- carbonic fluids, commonly represented by the ternary system H2O-NaCl-CO2. The phase equilibria, thermodynamic proper- ties (PVTx , density, compositions of fluid phases) and quartz dissolution-precipitation behavior in the H2O-NaCl-CO2 sys- tem, which are still poorly constrained, are of great importance to understanding the process of hydrothermal gold mineralization. Here, we conducted thermodynamic modeling to constrain the fluid properties under single- and two-phase conditions in the H2O-NaCl-CO2 system at temperatures of 300 to 500 degrees C and pressures of 0.001 to 3.5 kbar. Our results illus- trate thermodynamic controls rooted in the equilibria of the H2O-NaCl-CO2 system. Increasing CO2 and/or NaCl contents shift the solvus to higher pressures and temperatures, expanding the pressure & ndash;temperature region of L + V immiscibility. Cal- culated isopleths of CO2 content in coexisting, immiscible vapor and liquid describe the maximum amount of CO2 that may be present in fluid inclusions through the studied P-T-x ranges. Quartz solubility in the H2O-NaCl-CO2 fluids shows strong dependence on temperature, pressure, and CO2 content, with several potential triggers for vein mineral deposition. Specifi- cally, solubility of quartz generally decreases with decreasing temperature, pressure, and increasing CO2 content both in the single- and two-phase fluids, but exhibits retrograde behavior in the L + V field or at the phase-transition boundary. In detail, the dependence of quartz solubility on pressure is weak at low temperatures (300 degrees C), and becomes progressively stronger at high temperatures (400 degrees C and 500 degrees C), vice versa for temperature dependency at different pressures. The present study reviews two mechanisms of fluid immiscibility and constrain the conditions at which distinct fluid inclu- sion types, bedding-parallel shear veins and fault-related extension veins are formed in mesothermal gold deposits. Thermo- dynamic modeling of the solvus of the H2O-NaCl-CO2 system is consistent with the hypothesis that decompression is an efficient mechanism driving fluid immiscibility at specific ranges of temperature and composition, producing coexisting liquid- and vapor-phase fluids, both with low density and relatively low content of CO2 . For fluids with high CO2 contents (>10 mol. %), cooling at relatively high pressure may also lead to fluid immiscibility, producing a liquid with low CO2 content in equilibrium with a vapor of medium to high CO2 content. Very CO2-rich, or & ldquo;pure CO2 & rdquo; fluid inclusions (>90 mol. % CO2 , type I) cannot be produced by immiscibility under these conditions, but may rather be the result of decrepitation of primary H2O-NaCl-CO2 fluid inclusions. Within the P-T-x ranges studied here, cooling-dominated phase separation accounts for the formation of fluid inclusions with moderate to high CO2 contents (50-80 mol. % CO2 , type IIa). Fluid inclusions with low to moderate CO2 contents (5-30 mol. % CO2 , type IIb) can represent the original ore-forming fluids, or can be produced by decompression-dominated phase separation. And H2O-NaCl fluid inclusions (type III) generally represent the latest-stage ore-forming fluids, or can be produced by decompression-induced immiscibility at high temperature. In orogenic (mesother- mal) gold deposits, decompression-induced quartz precipitation during pressure fluctuation is dominant in bedding-parallel shear veins. Fault-related extension veins are associated with initial decompression-induced quartz precipitation and subse- quent cooling-dominated deposition.
