Origins of Rapakivi Granites and Associating Gold Mineralization in Active Continental Margin Complexes of the Southwestern and Southeastern Margins of the Siberian Craton

Abstract We integrated geological, mineralogical and petrographic, geochemical and isotopic investigations of rocks of varying compositions from rapakivi-bearing active continental margin complexes in the southwestern and southeastern margins of the Siberian craton. The magmatic sources of these rocks have been identified, and we propose geodynamic formation models as well as a discussion of the nature of associating Au, Au–Sb, and Au–Bi mineralization.
