L'expression «or disséminé» qualifie des minéralisations auxquelles ne sont associées que de faibles quantités de filons et qui se composent d'or «finement dispersé dans des roches hôtes de composition variable où l'on décèle peu ou pas de contrôle des fabriques sur la minéralisation, du moins à l'échelle des échantillons macroscopiques» (Romberger, 1986).
