Supplementary Materials

Here, we provide the Supplementary Materials for the manuscript "Transient non-soluble noble metal transport in hydrothermal ore systems," submitted to Nature Communications.

1. Supplementary Figures. Petrographic, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy images of polymineral inclusions (PMI) within gangue quartz from the El Hilo bonanza.
2. Supplementary Data S1. Examples of hydrothermal ore deposits with mineralogical and textural features suggestive of precious-metal-rich melts.
3. Supplementary Data S2. Physicochemical features of polymineral inclusions (PMI).
4. Supplementary Data S3. Calculations of fluidization velocity, settling velocity, pressure gradient, fluid viscosity, and fluid density.
