Resumen:
The San Francisco de los Andes breccia-hosted Bi-Cu-Au deposit contains numerous Bi-Cu-As-Pb-Ag-Au sulfides and sulfosalts. Some of the most common minerals are bismuthinite, chalcopyrite, bornite, arsenopyrite and pyrite. In the current study we have identified an assemblage that consists of bismuthinite argentocuprocosalite. The bismuthinite is rich in silver telluride inclusions whereas the argentocuprocosalite contains none.
