Abstract
The article presents new data on the structural position, mineralogy and geochemistry of ores for the Aliinsky ore cluster and their technological features. The mineralogical and geochemical zoning of the Verkhne-Aliinsky gold ore deposit and the entire Aliinsky ore cluster as a whole is characterized The subordination of local and horizontal zoning of mineralization within the node, localization of granitoids of the late phase of the Late Jurassic Akatuevsky complex is shown. A conclusion was made about the connection of mineralization with granitoids within the framework of a single ore-magmatic system that existed in unstable P-T-X conditions of shallow depths, transitional to near-surface. This distinguishes the Verkhne-Aliinskoye deposit from the Sredne-Golgotayskoye and Sosnovskoye deposits that are similar in composition and determined, partly, the technological resistance of its ores.
