Celestite, barite, magnesite and fluorspar: stratabound settings through time and space
The stratabound settings of the main nonmetallic ore fields such as celestite, barite, magnesite, and fluorspar show a wide variety of tectonic environments through the geologic record. Even so, there are defined habitats for some specific ore-mineral assemblages, which indicate an active tectonic c...

Sumario: | The stratabound settings of the main nonmetallic ore fields such as celestite, barite, magnesite, and fluorspar show a wide variety of tectonic environments through the geologic record. Even so, there are defined habitats for some specific ore-mineral assemblages, which indicate an active tectonic control for the mineralization. For each ore mineral, the different ore fields are described in age order, beginning with the pre-Paleozoic where such deposits are known. -from Authors |
