The paper presents a comparative characteristics of gold minerals from the gabbro of the Ural Platinum-bearing belt based on the author’s (Kumbinsky massif, Serebryansky Kamen massif, Volkovskoye deposit) and literary data (Volkovskoye deposit, Baronskoye ore occurrence). It has been established that for the studied assemblages there is a predominance of native gold, which is characterized by the following types: native gold without any impurities, cuprous gold and cuprous-palladium gold. In the gabbro of the Kumba massif, for the first time in the Urals Platinum-bearing belt and Russia, an unnamed phase with a composition close to the Cu2PdAu stoichiometry was found. For all identified types of gold minerals, the conditions for their formation were evaluated.
