Abstract

In the second stage of the mineralogical characterization of an auriferous vein, there were obtained results from several labor area visited, where different selected candidates were sampled, which are representatives from respective perforation wells, it can be summarized in a total of 37 wells with 86 samples. It was possible to get interesting information from the different places. In this report are compiled, for their later comparison, samples characteristic like color, texture, consistency, chemical composition and forming and accessory minerals, as well as gold purity, size and other characteristics with technological impact. This information was obtained from simple observation and by the use of light and electron microscopy as well as different analytical techniques. It was possible to get a better understanding of the mineral body and its potential behavior in a technological process. Attention was approached to the way in which gold particles appear and its mineral associations
