The sulfide minerals from old mafic intrusion rocks from the Kola Peninsula were analyzed on stable sulfur isotopes. These samples were already dated by the Sm-Nd method. These sulfide samples were evaluated upon a geochemical composition by ICP-MS. The sulfide mineral samples were selected from the main ore-bearing rocks of the Monchetundra layered intrusion. The analyzed sulfides formed several generations of mineralization associated with primary and hydrothermal stage of formation of the deposits. Isotopic studies confirm a few consecutive stages of mineralization. These data were compared with the results of Sm-Nd dating of sulfide mineralization. The results of geochemical and geochronological studies indicate a complementarity in the context of determining the mineralization stages.
