The Turkestan-Alay and Southern Fergana regions, located within the South Tien Shan, host an important Hg–Sb mineral province with proven reserve of over 5 Mt Sb and 0.8 Mt Hg. In Soviet times, during the intensive study and exploitation of the mercury-antimony deposits, increased gold content of these ores has been noted. But the focus on only the main ore components (Hg-Sb), as well as the absence of “working” exploration geological and genetic models of Carlin type deposits, did not allow to fully assess the gold potential of the ore belt.
