Carlin–type gold deposits are sediment-hosted disseminated gold deposits. These deposits are characterized by invisible (typically microscopic and/or dissolved) gold in arsenic rich pyrite and arsenopyrite.[2] This dissolved kind of gold is called "Invisible Gold", as it can only be found through chemical analysis.[3] The deposit is named after the Carlin mine, the first large deposit of this type discovered in the Carlin Trend, Nevada.
