Abstract/NotesNumerous mineral microinclusions discovered in the Triassic Ildeus mafic–ultramafic intrusion are dominated by base metal sulfides, gold, silver, and their alloys, as well as rare earth element (REE) minerals. These mineral microinclusions were formed through both the magmatic differentiation of the Ildeus intrusion and the multi-stage interaction of intrusive rocks with late-magmatic, post-magmatic and post-collisional fluids. A comparison of the results of our microinclusions study with ore mineralization discovered within the Ildeus intrusion suggests that microinclusion assemblages in igneous rocks are, in some cases, precursors of potentially economic mineralization. In the case of the Ildeus rocks, sulfide microinclusions correspond to potentially economic disseminated nickel–cobalt sulfide ores, while microinclusions of gold and its alloys correlate with intrusion-hosted, erratic gold mineralization. The occurrence of silver and rare earth element minerals in Ildeus plutonic rocks indicates the possible presence of silver and REE mineralization, which is supported by sub-economic whole-rock silver and REE grades in parts of the Ildeus intrusion. The results of our investigation suggest that studies of mineral microinclusions in magmatic rocks may be useful in the evaluation of their metallogenic specialization and ore-forming potential and could possibly be utilized as an additional prospecting tool in the regional exploration for precious, base, and rare metals.
