Identification and classification of quartz textures and the mineralization pulses is an efficient and economical exploration tool in epithermal systems. This technique provides valuable information and allows the time/space location of gold-silver mineralization along the vein. In this contribution, different observation scales are used to determine the correlation between Au-Ag mineralization and the hydrothermal pulses distribution to use this as an exploration tool for the Amancaya Mine.
