Petrography, ore microscopy, XRF and XRD analysis were used combined with the previous research to understand the mineralization in Way Linggo area. The majority of veins show crustiform-colloform textures. XRD and ore microscopy indicates pyrite, chacopyrite, sphalerite associated with gangue mineral such as quartz, chlorite and clay minerals. Fluid inclusion analysis indicate 180 to 250°C and salinity range from 1.2 to 1.7 wt% NaCl. However, the colloform textures are present in the study area and boiling evidence, this stage is might not sufficient yet to precipitate a significant amount of gold. These textural and alteration analysis indicates that Way Linggo is a typical low sulfidation epithermal system. text
