Gold chalcogenides

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Gold chalcogenides are compounds formed between gold and one of the chalcogens, elements from group 16 of the periodic table: oxygen, sulfur, selenium, or tellurium.

Gold telluride minerals, such as calaverite and krennerite (AuTe2), petzite (Ag3AuTe2), and sylvanite (AgAuTe2), are minor ores of gold (and tellurium). See telluride minerals for more information.
