| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Oxygen and sulfur isotope data of ore and gangue minerals occurring in hydrothermal deposits can be used to estimate origin of ore-forming solution and precipitation mechanisms. Oxygen and sulfur isotope data obtained in this study suggest following conclusions. Origin of geothermal water of Osorezan geothermal field is mixture of high-temperature volcanic gas and meteoric water. Fluid boiling and mixing with meteoric water was principle mechanism for formation of low-sulfidation style epithermal gold deposit at the Hishikari mine. Origin of sulfur of seafloor hydrothermal deposit at the Bayonnaise knoll is sulfate ion dissolving in seawater.
