Popis: In the Aktyuz-Boordinsky ore district in the Northern Tien Shan, numerous deposits and ore occurrences of gold, rare and rare earth metals and base metals are discovered. Gold deposits are characterized by the presence of a number of metasomatites: beresites, listvenites, K-feldspatites, etc. Many of them are also characterized by quartz-tourmaline gold-bearing metasomatites. A mineralogical and petrographic description of the metasomatic zoning of quartz-tourmaline metasomatites from weakly to highly altered zones is given. Quartz-tourmaline metasomatites form vein-like bodies and metasomatic breccias, where they act as cement, and the fragments can consist of intrusive rock, beresites, K-feldspatites, and listvenites. For the Aktyuz-Boordinsky ore district, quartz-tourmaline metasomatites are a prospecting feature for gold, and for other areas they are a prospecting criterion.
