    AnnotationAnomalous concentrations of platinum-group elements (PGE) Pd – up to 281 ppb, Pt – up to 110 ppb, Ir – up to 7.4 ppb, Ru – up to 19.8 ppb, Rh –up to 8.4 ppb and Au (up to 18.5 ppb) have been detected in low Ni-Cu (Cr) mineralized pyroxenite and serpentinite recovered from the HSV-1 structural borehole at Svitavy. Based on geological and geotectonic position and geochemi-cal data these rocks hidden under Cretaceous sediments represent most likely continuation of the Letovice ophiolite complex. Maximum Ni, Cu and Cr values reach 0.67, 0.11 and 0.35 wt.%, re-spectively and abundant spinels (Cr-spinel, magnesiochromite, chromite) and magnetite with minor sulfides (millerite and chalcopyrite) were identified as major ore bearing minerals in the most rich-est PGE sample. No discrete PGE phases were identified.
