  1. Introduction

Single fluid inclusion composition analysis is an important method for studying the genesis and mineralization process of ore deposits. With the continuous development of science and technology, the study of single fluid inclusions has become increasingly in-depth. Composition analysis is one of the important methods for studying single fluid inclusions. This article will review the methods for single fluid inclusion composition analysis and their indications for ore deposit genesis.

  1. Methods

2.1 Microscopy observation

Microscopy observation is one of the basic methods for studying single fluid inclusions. By observing the morphology, porosity, color, and gas-liquid phase characteristics of fluid inclusions under a microscope, the physical and chemical properties and genesis information can be obtained. Under the microscope, fluid inclusions have obvious research value and indication, such as determining the formation temperature, tectonic environment, and fluid properties of the inclusion.

2.2 Laser Raman spectroscopy

Laser Raman spectroscopy is a method of determining the composition of a substance by analyzing the vibration frequency of fluid inclusions. By irradiating fluid inclusions with laser, the vibration components in the inclusion are excited, and then the material components in the fluid inclusion are analyzed by observing the excited emission spectrum. This method can analyze small-molecule organic matter, inorganic matter, and salt solutions in fluid inclusions, and has the characteristics of high sensitivity and high resolution.

2.3 Infrared spectroscopy

Infrared spectroscopy is also a method for analyzing the composition of fluid inclusions. By analyzing fluid inclusions with an infrared spectrometer, information on vibration spectra, molecular structure, and trapping events can be obtained. Infrared spectroscopy is widely used in the composition analysis of fluid inclusions, and can detect various small-molecule organic matter components in fluid inclusions.

2.4 Mass spectrometry

Mass spectrometry is a method of analyzing the mass and composition of a sample by ionizing the sample. In the analysis of fluid inclusion composition, mass spectrometry is a very effective tool. For example, mass spectrometry can detect gas and liquid compounds in fluid inclusions, especially in the study of gas-bearing fluid inclusions.

2.5 Isotope analysis

Isotope analysis is one of the important methods for studying the composition of fluid inclusions. Isotope analysis includes stable isotopes and radioactive isotopes. By analyzing the ratio and distribution of stable isotopes, the material circulation in the genesis and mineralization process can be judged. The analysis of radioactive isotopes is mainly used to determine the formation time and temperature of fluid inclusions.

2.6 X-ray fluorescence analysis

X-ray fluorescence analysis is a non-destructive method of composition analysis. By exciting the atoms in the sample with X-rays, the types and contents of the atoms can be analyzed by detecting the X-rays emitted. In the composition analysis of fluid inclusions, this method can analyze the elemental composition and relative content in the inclusion.

  1. Application and indication for ore deposit genesis

Different types of ore deposits will produce fluid inclusions in the genesis and formation process, and the composition analysis of these inclusions can provide important indications for ore deposit genesis. For example, the composition of various salts, small-molecule organic matter, and trace elements in fluid inclusions in low-temperature hydrothermal ore deposits show strong material migration and exchange characteristics, which indicate the genesis, source, and permeability of fluid inclusions. High-temperature ore deposits will produce more gas-liquid phase separation fluid inclusions, and their composition can also indicate information about magma sources and evolution processes. The indication of single fluid inclusion composition analysis for ore deposit genesis is mainly reflected in the following aspects:

(1) Determination of formation temperature: In the process of single fluid inclusion composition analysis, the formation temperature range of mineralizing fluids can be judged by measuring parameters such as the gas-liquid phase transition temperature and microthermometry temperature, which provides important basis for determining the genesis of ore deposits.

(2) Tracing the source of mineralizing materials: The trace elements and isotopes contained in single fluid inclusions can trace the origin and characteristics of mineralizing materials. For example, the lead isotope composition of ore deposits is similar to that of the Kasuga Volcano in Mexico, indicating that the genesis of the ore deposit is related to the rock.

(3) Migration and exchange of fluid materials: Single fluid inclusion composition analysis can reveal the material migration and exchange processes involved in ore deposit genesis. The composition characteristics and distribution laws of fluid inclusions formed in different types of ore deposit genesis are also different. Using different analysis methods can reveal the characteristics of material exchange and its information.

(4) Determination of tectonic environment: The gas-liquid phase transition characteristics of fluid inclusions reflect the environmental pressure state during mineralization, such as atmospheric pressure and surface temperature. At the same time, the gas composition of fluid inclusions can reveal the oxidation-reduction conditions during mineralization, such as the degree of rock evolution and the oxidation-reduction conditions of the mineralizing background.

(5) Indication of mineralization process: Single fluid inclusions are locked in during the mineralization process, and their composition can indicate the fluid composition and sources during different stages of mineralization. For example, the Au, Ag, and other metal contents and isotopic compositions in single fluid inclusions in Ag-polymetallic deposits can indicate the evolution process of hydrothermal fluids in different mineralization stages.

(6) Discrimination of ore deposit types: Single fluid inclusion composition analysis can reveal the characteristic information of different types of ore deposit genesis, which is important for discriminating ore deposit types. For example, the differences in the form of uranium compounds and the content of rare earth elements in single fluid inclusions in uranium deposits can be used to identify different types of uranium deposits.

With the continuous development of ore deposit exploration, mineralization theory, and technology, the method of single fluid inclusion composition analysis is also continuously improving. In the future, the development trend of single fluid inclusion compositio
