Degree: Master of Science Abstract: Carbonate-hosted ore deposits, such as Mississippi Valley-type (MVT), and Irish-type deposits, are a major class of Pb-Zn ores. Due to the mineralogy of these deposits, numerical constraints on the timing of mineralization are few. This thesis investigates pyrite...
