Abstract
The report provides new data on the mineralogy of the ores of the Sharomskoye copper ore occurrence, the Kirganik-Sharom ore zone in Central Kamchatka. Copper ores are confined to the central part of the submeridional massif of subalkaline metasomatites. Mineralization is disseminated, less often vein-disseminated in nature.The studied ore samples, collected during field works in 2023, are represented by silicified metasomatites with developed sulfide mineralization. Among the vein and accessory minerals are quartz, chlorite, barite and apatite. Ore minerals are represented by magnetite, chalcopyrite and bornite. Hematite and malachite are the most common supergene minerals, while cuprite and hydroxides of Fe and Cu are less common. The established chalcopyrite-bornite mineral association of the Sharomskoye ore occurrence is considered typical of other copper mineral prospects in central Kamchatka and is characteristic of porphyry copper deposits.
