Supplemental Material: Mercury isotope evidence for basement as the metal source of mantle plume rock–hosted Carlin-type gold deposits in South China

Key Points

Mercury isotopes indicate basement origins for metals in Carlin-type gold deposits.
Data includes U-Pb zircon analyses and major trace-element results from dolerites.
Fresh dolerites and associated minerals show significant mercury content and isotopic variations.
Findings suggest new insights into the sources of metals in Carlin-type gold deposits in South China.

Abstract

Table S1: SIMS U-Pb analysis results of zircon from the fresh dolerites in the Pingle and Shijia deposits. Table S2: Major- and trace-element contents of the fresh dolerites in the Pingle and Shijia deposits. Table S3: Total Hg and Hg isotopic compositions of fresh dolerites, Carboniferous and Permian sedimentary strata, quartz porphyry, and ore-associated pyrite in the Pingle and Shijia deposits.
