The Vergenoeg Magnetite-Fluorite Deposit, South Africa: Support for a Hydrothermal Model for Massive Iron Oxide Deposits

Vergenoeg is a fluorite-bearing massive iron oxide deposit that is genetically related to granites of the Bushveld Complex. It consists of a pipe-shaped body containing primary fayalite, fluorite, apatite, ilmenite, and magnetite that cuts Rooiberg rhyolites and is surrounded by stratiform bodies of...
