摘要

New Pd-Tl-(Bi, As)-rich compounds are described from the Anomal'nyi Cu-PGE deposit, Kondyor alkaline ultramafic complex, northeastern Russia. They occur in vein-type settings associated with bodies of `kosvite' (magnetite-rich clinopyroxenite) in the dunite-(peridotite) core, in pegmatitic and micaceous rocks. The ore zones are substantially enriched in phlogopite; they consist of diopside, disseminated titaniferous magnetite and fluorapatite (Sr-bearing). The observed assemblages of ore minerals include sulfides of the chalcopyrite-bornite-(secondary chalcocite) association and various species of platinumgroup minerals (PGM) [isomertieite or arsenopalladinite rich in Sb, mertieite-II, mertieite-I, sobolevskite, kotulskite, merenskyite, zvyagintsevite, palarstanide, paolovite, sperrylite, maslovite or moncheite, hollingworthite and unnamed species of PGM] and a Ag-Au alloy. The oxides [Pd-4(Bi, Te, Tl)O-6 and Pd-4(Tl, Bi, Te)O-6] probably formed in situ by oxidation reactions at the expense of the associated PGM intergrowths. These involve palladium bismuthide-thallide phases, Pd-5(Tl, As, Bi) and Pd-5(As, Tl, Bi), which are documented here for the first time. A fairly evolved environment, enriched in Cu, Pd, Te, Bi, Pb and volatile components, is indicated for the vein-type deposit at Anomal'nyi.
