Opis:
The paper presents geological, ore-mineralogical and economic characteristics of the goldfields in the Western USA (California and Yukon) and Australia (Bendigo-Ballart and Kalgoorlie regions). Moreover, common geological features of these areas, which were the place of modern Gold Rushes from the second half of 19th c. to the beginning of 20th c. are also described. Thanks to discovery of gold, these inhabited areas became the land of promise for millions of people and gold production contributed to economy of the fast growing nations. The first period of Gold Rushes began in California (USA) and Bendigo-Ballart region in Victoria (Australia) in 1848 and 1851, respectively. Placer gold was discovered first in Cenozoic alluvial sediments and subsequently in auriferous quartz lodes, which were the source of detrital gold. The detrital sediments appeared extremely rich in gold nuggets. The biggest nuggets, ca. 65.2 and 24.5 kg in weight, have been found in Bendigo and California, respectively. Placer gold production during the Gold Rush in California from 1848 to 1864 is estimated at ca. 1300 Mg Au. Since 1850, prospectors begun to discover numerous gold-bearing quartz veins (Mother Lode system) along the Sierra Nevada in California. These auriferous lodes gave over 1100 Mg of gold. In Bendigo-Ballart goldfields about 480 Mg of gold was extracted from placers and 260 Mg goldfrom from auriferous quartz veins in the years 1851–1861. The second period of modern Gold Rushes took place again in America (Yukon) in 1896 and in the Western Australia (Kalgoorlie) in 1893. In Yukon, gold was mainly extracted from Cenozoic river’s gravels (> 311 Mg) and in Kargoorlie—mainly from auriferous quartz-carbonate lodes. Some of goldfields with auriferous lodes discovered in 19th c. are still in production. Best example is here the Kargoorlie deposit that became recently the 3rd largest world producer of gold (> 1600 Mg Au). Gold production from lodes in California, Bendigo-Ballart and Kalgoorlie is roughly estimated at > 4000 Mg. Gold-bearing lodes formed as results of migration of fluids of various origin and gold precipitation in the upper crust within post-collisional tectonic settings. These lodes belong to orogenic type of gold deposits hosted by greenstone schist belts in metamorphic terranes of various age. Primary gold is bound mostly by auriferous sulphides—arsenopyrite and pyrite and as native gold which infills fractures in quartz and breccias. In California, Yukon and Victoria, rich placers were formed in the Cenozoic during exhumation of metamorphic terranes hosting auriferous gold lodes.

Opis:
Miocene aged heavy mineral (HMin) alluvial cones and regolith sands above ore-bearing gabbro and amphibolite/diabase rock zone were considered as a prospective metallotect in the area of Devonian ophiolite Ślęża Massif in the Sudets (SW Poland). The available research data from the Sobótka region indicated that the ultramafic gabbro intrusion has an interesting titanium ore enrichment with minerals such as ilmenite and titanomagnetite in the Strzegomiany-Kunów primary ultramafic rocks. The mean composition of ore gabbro samples taken from the surface contained eg; Fe -14.21%, TiO2 - 4.92%, V2O5 - 0,15. Conducted geophysical surveys in the vicinity of the presumed gabbroic rocks at thin Quaternary sediments cover, suggested the variable content ofa primary mineralization, which could be related to the increased content of heavy minerals fractions over the bed in the form of regolith or as a secondary deposit. Titanium minerals such as ilmenite, sphene, were enriched during the oxidation process and created secondary bed, where the concentrates of titanium oxides: rutile, leucoxene or oxidized ilmenite may have a high titanium content as high as 70-90%. Placer HMin sands are at present a major source of titanium deposits worldwide and the largest industrial value due to their large resources, simplicity and purity of exploitation and the ability to yield concentrates of HMin: ilmenite, rutile, pseudobrookite, anatase and leucoxene, sometimes in the company of valuable zircon, monazite or garnet. These deposits in the world are mainly used in metallurgical and chemical industries, eg; the production ofpaints and pigments used in the pharmacy, paper and paint industry. Similar observations have been reported from the region of Spain, Portugal, western Australia andfrom the south of India. Preliminary results of presented study indicate that the Strzegomiany-Kunów region can be considered as prospective not only because of the presence ofprimary titanium mineralization in gabbro, especially in diallage gabbro, amphibolite (diabase) and serpentinite, but also a presence of enriched titanium mineralization in regolith over gabbro and in clastic sediments on the foreland of Ślęża Massif.

Opis:
In NW Spain, on the border of Galicia, Asturias and Castile and Leon, in the Rio Sil River, the exploitation of gold placer deposits tooks place. Gold from alluvium was exploited by the Celts, but the Romans developed large-scale exploitation. The paper describes the attractive landscape, which is a relict ofa Roman gold mine. This mine was probably the largest in the Roman Empire. Gold occurs in the Neogene alluvium (~20 Ma years). The deposit is probably a weathering product of gold-bearing quartz veins. Three deposit series have been distinguished. They are composed of conglomerates with intercalations of finer-grained material - sand and clay. The top series, Las Medulas, has the thickness of >100 m, the middle series, Santalla, has the thickness of 0-30 m, and the most gold-bearing (20-100 mg/m3, at the base even 60-300 mg/m3) and intensely red gangue Orellan series found at the base is 0-25 m thick. The basement is represented by Devonian and Silurian limestones, shales and quartzites, Ordovician limestones, dolomites and shales, and Cambrian quartzites with slates at the top. The deposit is cut by numerous faults, which form blocks, and are the cause of variations in the level of the deposit series. The mining technique used by the Romans is also characterized. In the mine, where mining works were carried out on the surface of1228 ha, about 1626 tons of gold were exploited during the periodfrom ~25 BC to the early third century AD,. A technique ofruina montium was usedfor gold exploitation. It consists of drilling in excavations ofpoorly compacted rocks - tunnels, adits, shafts (up to a depth of 100 m). Through these excavations, the waterfallingfrom above was transferred. Water under pressure has burst and washed out the deposit. Presently, the remains of the Las Medulas deposit series are represented by the characteristic red rocks, which are poorly compacted. They create morphology of the mining landscape, which is inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage Site list.
