ABSTRACT. Low-grade alteration of basaltic lavas at Teigarhorn, eastern Iceland, resulted in three distinct stages of mineral paragenesis that correlate to events in the burial and intrusive history of Icelandic crust. Metasomatism and brittle deformation during the paragenetic stages dramatically a...
