ZINCIAN SPINEL AND STAUROLITE AS GUIDES TO ORE IN THE APPALACHIANS AND SCANDINAVIAN CALEDONIDES
Zincian spinel or gahnite (Zn,Fe, Mg)Al2Oa occurs in metamorphosed massive-sulfide deposits, aluminous metasediments, pegmatites, quartz veins, and metamor-phosed oxide-silicate deposits in at least forty localities within the Appalachians and Scandinavian Caledonides. Most occurrences are associate...
