Danba Gold Deposit is a typical telluride-type gold deposit located in the southeastern margin of the Songpan-Ganzi orogenic belt.A large number of visible gold and tellurium-bismuth minerals are developed in this deposit.The mineralogical characteristics of native gold were studied in detail through microscopic petrographic observation and scanning electron microscopy,with pilsenite and native gold as the main research objects.The results show that the gold-bearing minerals in Danba Gold Deposit mainly include pyrrhotite,chalcopyrite,pyrite,pilsenite,native bismuth,and maldonite.A large amount of native gold has a close spatiotemporal relationship with pilsenite and native bismuth.The occurrence of maldonite is the most direct evidence of bismuth melt precipitation and gold removal.
