In this belt, the volcanic rocks (tholeiitic basalt, calcalkaline basalt, andesite) hosting the gold mineralization are located in the Kwademen-Baguiomo shear zone. This mineralization, located only a few kilometers from the Kwademen gold deposit, is uncharacterized and, together with the latter, could constitute a gold potential capable of being economically exploitable. It is in this sense that this work is carried out with a view to characterizing the gold mineralization of the Baguiomo gold panning site. To carry out this work, we have made direct field measurements, combined with microstructures, and combined all this with data from geochemical rock analysis of the basalts that are the main host formations. Geochemical data show that tholeitic basalts formed from a mantle plume that was emplaced in an oceanic plateau context. Calc-alkaline basalts and andesites are comparable to Paleoproterozoic tholeitic basalts (PTH3), which are slightly enriched in light rare earths. Fertility tests show that these basalts concentrate between 3 and 6 ppb of gold at the time of accretion, which is sufficient for remobilization of this primary gold during the Eburnian orogeny to yield a deposit of around 4 - 5 Moz. Gold mineralization is associated with pyrite crystals when the latter are disseminated in the rock mass, whereas it is associated with hematite in quartz veins concordant with S1 shear deformation. It is mainly the pyrite crystals in the pressure shadows that contain the gold grains, whose development would be synchronous with micro-shear zone reactivation during the first phase of D1<sub>B</sub> deformation. The second phase of D2<sub>B</sub> deformation, which is a crenulation or fracture schistosity, does not significantly affect the shear deformation that controls mineralization.展开更多

The primary methods used to make the diagnosis are through physical examinations, biopsies of organs that are affected, and/or angiographic studies. Immunosuppressants like glucocorticoids and cyclophosphamide are usually started as soon as possible after a diagnosis. So, it’s not clear if sudden remission of PAN happens or not. Here we present a 42-year-old male who presented with right upper quadrant, right flank pain and fever. CT angiogram Aorta revealed soft tissue rind around the small to medium sized vessel in the abdomen and bilateral cortical renal infarcts of variable age in the right more than the left. A diagnosis of polyarteritis nodosa was made and the patient achieved spontaneous remission with no need for corticosteroids or immunosuppressive therapy.展开更多
