  Rocks & Minerals: Petzite: Bald Mountain, Sonora, Tuolumne County, California - Connoisseur's   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Petzite is a somewhat nondescript mineral that is not easily identifiable in hand specimens.
It exhibits a metallic luster and a color that varies from bright steel-gray to iron-gray; it is often tarnished in shades of bronze to sooty-gray.
Petzite crystallizes m the cubic system (432) and is most often seen as granular to dense, compact masses: it rarely occurs in well-formed crystals

Description: Petzite is a steel-gray granular mineral found in hydrothermal deposits associated with other rare tellurium, gold and silver minerals.
RUSK COUNTY: Petzite is reported as a component of the ore at the Flambeau Mine, south of Ladysmith.
TAYLOR COUNTY: Petzite is found as small grains intergrown with pyrite, chalcopyrite, calaverite, krennerite and other minerals at the Bend Deposit, NW sec.

Pyrite, galena, sphalerite, chalcopyrite, petzite, and free gold comprise the ore minerals in the quartz-carbonate gangue.
Finely crystalline petzite with well defined cubic cleavage has been mistaken for galena in the Bay vein, but may be distinguished by its lighter colour, finer grain, and common association with free gold.
High grade ore shoots are characterized by minutely fractured vitreous quartz of greenish blue cast, by the presence of finely crystalline petzite, and by the absence of coarsely crystalline galena and sphalerite.

One of the most widespread gold tellurides is petzite, a mineral significantly underrepresented in most collections.
Petzite is almost unknown in the eastern and central United States, despite the fact that telluride minerals have been identified from a number of the southern Piedmont's many gold deposits.
It has been reported from the Bend deposit, near Gilman, Taylor County, Wisconsin, where it occurs as a steel-gray granular mineral associated with other gold, silver, and tellurium minerals; and it has also been identified as a very minor constituent of the Flambeau mine ores, Ladysmith, Rusk County, Wisconsin.

Sue investigated petrologically (using SEM technology, fluid inclusion and x-ray diffractometry equipment and thermodynamic calculations) the gold-telluride mineralization associated with the caldera.
About 95% of the gold is present as gold tellurides (petzite and kostovite) while native tellurium is the dominant tellurium phase while tellurides of Ag, Bi and Cu are also dominant at Wild Dog.
Through Sue’s geological career she has worked as exploration petrologist at Mount Isa Mines (Mount Isa), The Geological Survey of Victoria (Melbourne), The Geological Survey of Queensland (Brisbane), Queensland Metals Corporation (Toowong), and Austa Electric (Murarrie).

Rocks and Minerals: Petzite locality on LookSmart Science
In the article on petzite (January/ February 2004), two Canadian localities were cited that, in fact, are one and the same: "Home mine at Noranda" and the "Noranda mine at Rouyn." It is a bit of a convoluted story.
The mine in question was first called the Noranda mine and later renamed the Home mine in honor of the prospector who discovered the deposit, Ed Horne.

 NJMC - Lost Eagle Project
Our claims at the Lost Eagle cover approximately 100 acres.
Hessite and petzite are silver and gold-silver telluride minerals, respectively, that are usually associated with high-grade gold deposits near alkaline-igneous bodies.
There are no igneous bodies mapped in the area, but a two-hole drilling program completed by NJMC in 2003 revealed abundant alteration including carbonate enrichment, postassic alteration, and a halo of specular hematite and pyrite with occasional galena.

Previous studies have argued that Sb is essential to montbrayite because without Sb, montbrayite is metastable and will break down to calaverite and native gold.
Montbrayite, up to 0.18 mm in length, coexists with altaite (PbTe) and petzite, native gold and petzite, and calaverite and native gold, and is intergrown with chalcopyrite, sphalerite, altaite, and pyrite in Fimiston-style mineralization in the Golden Mile.
