Full paper here- https://shorturl.at/Nelkp The paper explores how secular changes in global tectonic processes have influenced the distribution and timing of gold-bearing mineral deposits throughout Earth's history. It emphasizes the relationship between tectonic plate movement, crustal formation, and the creation of gold-rich deposits, particularly in metamorphic belts. These geological formations have experienced cyclical phases of activity, with significant periods of gold deposition aligning with shifts in tectonic dynamics. Additionally, the paper discusses how evolving tectonic regimes, such as supercontinent cycles, subduction zones, and crustal thickening events, have played a critical role in the formation of large-scale gold deposits. By examining these processes, the research provides insights into the broader context of mineral resource distribution and the potential for future exploration. P. Geo. Ricardo A Valls, M.
