A New Model of a Unique Schlema-Alberoda Five-Element Deposit, Federal Republic of Germany

Resumo

The paper completes a series of works about the unique Schlema-Alberoda deposit. The data on sources of vein and ore minerals and their relation to the processes of regressive alteration of rocks from the contact metamorphism zone are refined. The correlation between stages of mineral formation and their directed change are shown. A general scheme for the sequences in formation stages of the deposit’s hydrothermal ores is oriented on a joint analysis of geological and mineralogical–geochemical evolution of potentially ore-bearing provinces.
