Gold mineralisation in which gold is alloyed with palladium is unusual. In Brazil, however, palladiferous gold is linked to large-scale gold rushes. In the Brazilian Gold Cycle (1695-1785), a Palaeoproterozoic banded iron formation (itabirite)-hosted, vein-style mineralisation presumedly accounted for much of the gold production from the Ouro Preto area, Minas Gerais. Remarkable examples of this mineralisation are Gongo Soco and Itabira. In recent times, a spectacular gold rush was triggered by bonanza-style ore of palladiferous gold at Serra Pelada, Carajás mineral province, Pará. Abgesehen von den unterschiedlichen geologischen Milieus und spezifischen Besonderheiten besitzen die drei Lagerstätten doch gemeinsame mineralogische und geochemische Merkmale, die auf stark oxidierende (Stabilitätsfeld des Hämatits) Absatzbedingungen in einem relativ seichten Niveau hinweisen, die ganz typisch sind für hydrothermale Selenid-Ganglagerstätten.
