The article presents data on the composition and internal structure of cinnabar from sediments of three gold-bearing placers and diluvium of a mercury occurrence in the Middle Urals. Differences in the size and degree of roundness of cinnabar have been established. Cinnabar from Izvyostka River differs from other studied objects in its large grain size (up to 2.5 mm) and high degree of roundness, which indicates the location of the lode source at a short distance. Significant differences were revealed in the set of mineral inclusions in cinnabar. Inclusions of quartz and calcite are widespread. The most contrasting relative to other objects is the association of inclusions in the cinnabar from Izvyostka River. It is distinguished by the wide distribution of rare minerals of the Zn–Hg–Cd–S system, including Cd-rich metacinnabar, Zn-Cd-rich metacinnabar, and Hg-rich sphalerite. Cd-rich metacinnabar with a cadmium content of up to 19.45 wt.% was discovered for the first time. This mineral is close in composition to the synthesized phases (Hg, Cd)S. The totality of data on the inner structure and composition of cinnabar does not allow us to assume the type of the lode sources of most placers. However, typomorphic characteristics and especially the inclusion of rare sulfides Hg, Cd and Zn in cinnabar from sediments of the Izvyostka River indicates the location of a primary source with gold-mercury mineralization near the placer, similar to the Vorontsovskoe gold deposit.
