This thesis is aimed on mapping of historic mining relics and
heavy mineral prospection in the area Trucbába – Valcha, west
from Humpolec. Studied locality is located within Humpolec –
Pacov gold bearing zone.
Mapped relics of historic mining were drawn into the map with
1:3000 scale, in total 775 small pits, 429 placers and historic
water channel were mapped. Heavy mineral prospection confirmed
occurence of gold, wolframite and scheelite. Gold grains from
Trucbaba – Valcha are very pure (85,97 – 99,39 wt.% of Au) and
have typical perforation. Newly was found Mg-wolframite with
unusual content of huanzalaite end-member (12 %). Further
chemical analyses include scheelite, illmenite, magnetite,
garnet and monazite. Data were compared with locality Orlík by
Humpolec.
