Description
Summary:Post-recrystallisation phenomena in metamorphosed stratabound sulphide ores: a comment RECENTLY, Vokes and Craig (1993) described and illustrated evidence for sequential mobilisation of sphalerite, chalcopyrite and quartz in the small Gressli deposit in central Norway during Caledonian amphibolite-facies metamorphism. These authors stressed the need to study other similarly deformed and metamorphosed deposits to determine if similar textures might be present. The classic Cu-(Zn) pyritic deposits at Sulitjelma in northern Norway (Cook et al., 1990, 1993) are already well known as being excellent examples of stratiform assive sulphide deposits in which the
