Volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) deposit, located about 145 km from Zmeinogorsk and 35 km from the Kazakhstan-Russia border.
Locality description (translated from Webmineral, see link below):
The deposit is located 20 km southeast of the city of Rubtsovsk near the northern outskirts of the village of Poteryaevka.
The official and only correct name of the deposit is Rubtsovskoye, although in many sources the deposit is erroneously called Poteryaevsky (or Poteryaevsky Mine), after the name of the nearest village. Please avoid such mistakes.
The Rubtsovskoye pyrite-polymetallic deposit is located in the Rubtsovsky ore district and is located in a large volcanotectonic trough within the ancient rear island arc in the northwest of the Rudny Altai. Lavas, lava breccias, rhyolite porphyry tuffs, and argillaceous, calcareous, siliceous, and carbonaceous-argillaceous siltstones, arkosic sandstones, tuff sandstones, and tuffs participate in the structure of the deposit. All of them were broken by the Late Devonian subvolcanic intrusion of rhyolite and rhyolite-dacite porphyries. On the Devonian formations with angular unconformity, there are deposits of the Bukhtarma formation, represented at the base by conglomerates, gravelites, polymictic sandstones, and siltstones, which are replaced by limestones and calcareous siltstones higher along the section. The Paleozoic rocks are overlain by a thick (80-100 m) cover of Neogene-Quaternary deposits, mainly clays. Productive mineralization is localized in the lower part of the Nizhnekamenevskaya subformation, but near-ore changes go far beyond the contour of its development, covering the entire unit of volcanics of the ore-underlying Davydov formation. The zonal column of near-ore metasomatites is represented from top to bottom by albitized, chlorite-carbonate-sericite-quartz and sericite-quartz rocks. Above the argillaceous-siliceous and siliceous siltstones, from bottom to top, chlorite, sericite metasomatites and argillites are observed. Polymetallic mineralization is confined to these zones. The main industrial value of the deposit is represented by primary sulphide zinc-lead-copper ores. The most characteristic are continuous ores with a total sulphide content of more than 50% (usually 80-90%), disseminated and veined types are less common. In the upper parts of the ore deposit, the so-called mixed ores are developed, which are products of the initial stage of hypergenic change of primary ores. In the uppermost part of the orebody, directly under the Cenozoic deposits, there are intensively oxidized ores, which make up 1% of the total reserves of the deposit but in some places are very rich, including silver. There are two points of view on the genesis of the Rubtsovskoye deposit. According to one of them, mineralization was formed metasomatically in connection with the intrusion of rhyolite and rhyodacite porphyry in the Late Devonian. According to another hypothesis, almost all sulphide ores of the deposit are a volcanogenic-hydrothermal-sedimentary product, synchronous with sedimentation in the Middle Devonian time.
The oxidation zone of the deposit is associated with the finds of outstanding collection samples of cuprite, native copper, azurite, malachite, and uniquely rich iodide mineralization was also found in some areas of the upper horizons of the mine. The world's largest crystals of cuprite and marshite were found at the deposit.
The mine at the Rubtsovskoye deposit was launched in 2005, and in 2015 mining operations were stopped, and the mine was liquidated, but the processing plant for imported ore continued to operate at the mine site. The small but very rich Rubtsovskoye deposit was fully developed in 10 years.
