First Data on Molybdenite and Its Primary Sources in Pay-Khoy (Nenets Autonomous District): Mineralogy, Geochemistry, and Raman Spectroscopy

Resumo

The first data on five primary molybdenite sources within the gabbro-dolerite complex of Pay-Khoy (Pay-Khoy Ridge, Yugra Peninsula, Russia) are presented. The mineral is extended areally in Devonian ore-bearing gabbro-dolerites, contact rocks, and quartz veins. This paper considers the mineralogical–geochemical features of molybdenite, its occurrence, the composition of host rocks, and spectroscopic studies.
