Reduced intrusion-related gold systems(RIRGS) are characterized by widespread arrays of sheeted auriferous quartz veins that preferentially form in the brittle carapace at the top of small plutons, where they form bulk-tonnage, low-grade [gold] deposits... RIRGS also include a wide range of intrusion-related mineral deposit styles(skarns, replacements, veins) that form within the region of hydrothermal influence surrounding the causative pluton,... thereby generating a zoned mineral system. 3, record 1, English, - reduced%20intrusion%2Drelated%20gold%20system

Gold is the most important placer mineral ... Gold placers as a rule are easily discovered and worked ... Gold placers may be formed by rapid erosion of hard rocks, but such placers are not often rich and highly concentrated. In the great placer regions the concentration has generally been preceded by an epoch of deep secular decay of the surface ...
