dc.description.abstract | To investigate the aqueous species important for transport of rhenium under subcritical conditions, we conducted a series of solubility experiments from 100 degrees to 200 degreesC at vapor saturation pressures. In these experiments, oxygen fugacity was buffered by fixing the partial pressure of hydrogen gas, and pH was mainly buffered by H3PO4/H2PO4- and H2PO4-/HPO4-2 homogeneous aqueous buffers. These experimental solubility studies indicate that Re(OH)(4)(0) may be the predominant species over a wide range of pH from similar to2.2 to similar to8.8 in low-temperature solutions up to 200 degreesC. The equilibrium constants in the temperature range from 100 degrees to 200 degreesC for the reaction Re-(solid) + O-2(gas) + 2H(2)O = Re(OH)(4)(0)((aqueous)) can be expressed as follows (temperature, T, is in degrees K): log K = -19.38 +/- 0.86 + 29358 +/- 322/T(2 sigma) Sandstone copper deposits and black shales are typically enriched in rhenium, and our results may shed some light on their formation. As the formation temperature of such deposits is generally below 150 degreesC, neutral species should be important for the transport of rhenium in them. Our evaluation further demonstrates that the species ReO4- is not important in the transport of rhenium, even under geologically relatively oxidizing conditions close to the HS-/SO4-2 boundary in low-temperature environments typical of sandstone copper deposits and black shales. Our results suggest that several processes should be effective in concentration and deposition of rhenium, including (1) mixing of the fluids containing rhenium with cooler, sulfide-rich solutions, (2) decrease in temperature, (3) change in pH, and (4) redox reactions. Application of our results to sandstone copper deposits indicates that our findings are in good agreement with field observations, and it implies that mineralizing fluids responsible for the formation of sandstone copper deposits are capable of transporting thousands of tonnes of rhenium. Extrapolation of our experimental results suggests that ReS2 is important in controlling solubility in sulfur-bearing environments. Our calculations indicate that rhenium concentrations in the sulfide stability field, even ;close the HS-/SO4-2 boundary are very low (similar to 10(-6) to similar to 10(-5) ppm) in the temperature range from 100 degrees to 200 degreesC. This result may have important implications for the Re-Os isotopic system, implying that as long as low-temperature hydrothermal alteration is constrained to oxygen fugacity conditions under which sulfide is stable, disturbance of Re-Os systematics will not be severe. | |
