Title: Natural gases in mercury deposits of Donbass and Northwestern Caucasus

Journal Article · · Int. Geol. Rev.; (United States)
; ;

A short review of information on the composition and genesis of natural gases in the Northwestern Caucasus and Donbass mercury deposits is presented. These differences in gas composition, as well as the distinct predominance of carbon dioxide and hydrogen in hydrothermally altered rocks, may be used for predicting gas-bearing capacity of deposits and for mercury prospecting in new areas.
