Ag-Sb Minerals from the Yeonhwa 1 Mine

제 1 연화광산에서 산출되는 Ag-Sb계의 광물

Minerals of system Ag-Sb have been found in iead-zinc (-silver) ores from the Dongjeom and the Taebaeg ore deposits, which were formed at later stage of the Yeonhwa 1 mine mineralization. The Ag-Sb minerals are intergrown intimately with galena, pyrargyrite and alabandite. Their chemical compositions as determined by electron microprobe analyser show that they are chracterized by relatively high content of S, up to 5.89 atomic percent. Also the composition of the minerals may be separated into two: Ag3.89 Sb1.00-Ag7.19 Sb1.00 and Ag2.96 Sb1.00-Ag4.00 Sb1.00.
