Gases, condensates and silica tube precipitates were collected from 400 degreesC (Z2) and 800 degreesC (Z3) fumaroles at Colima volcano, Mexico, in 1996-1998. Volcanic gases at Colima were very oxidized and contain up to 98% air-due to mixing with air inside the dome interior, close to the hot magmatic body. An alkaline trap method was used to collect gas samples, therefore only acidic species were analysed. Colima volcanic gases are water-rich (95-98 mol%) and have typical S/C/Cl/F ratios for a subduction type volcano. deltaD-values for the high-temperature Z3 fumarolic vapour vary from -26 to -57 parts per thousand. A negative deltaD-Cl correlation for the Z3 high-temperature fumarole may result from magma degassing: enrichment in D and decrease in the Cl concentration in condensates are likely a consequence of input of fresh batches of magma and an increasing of volcanic activity, respectively. The trace element composition of Colima condensates generally does not differ from that of other volcanoes (e.g. Merapi, Kudryavy) except for some enrichment in V, Cu and Zn. Variations in chemical composition of precipitates along the silica tube from the high-temperature fumarole (Colima 1, fumarole Z3), in contrast to other volcanoes, are characterized by high concentrations of Ca and V, low concentration of Mo and a lack of Cd. Mineralogy of precipitates differs significantly from that described for silica tube experiments at other volcanoes with reduced volcanic gas. Thermochemical modelling was used to explain why very oxidized gas at Colima does not precipitate halite, sylvite, and Mo- and Cd-minerals, but does precipitate V-minerals and native gold, which have not been observed before in mineral precipitates from reduced volcanic gases.
