Fluid evolution of the Lindero porphyry gold deposit, NW Argentina: the critical role of salt melts in ore formation
The Lindero deposit is located in the Puna plateau, northwest Argentina, at the southern end of the Central Volcanic Zone of the Central Andes. The high-K calc-alkaline dioritic composition of the subvolcanic ...

Open AccessMetal budget and origin of aqueous brines depositing deep-seated Zn-Pb mineralization linked to hydrocarbon reservoirs, North German Basin
The origin, evolution, and interplay of brine and hydrocarbon fluid systems play a crucial role in the formation of deep sediment-hosted base metal ore deposits. Here we investigate ratios of halogens, noble g...

Open AccessThe Schlaining quartz-stibnite deposit, Eastern Alps, Austria: constraints from conventional and infrared microthermometry and isotope and crush-leach analyses of fluid inclusions
Stibnite was mined until the end of the twentieth century in the Schlaining ore district, Austria, near the easternmost border of the Eastern Alps where windows of Penninic ophiolites and metasediments are exp...

Genesis of Zn-Pb-(Ba-Sr) mineralization in the peridiapiric cover of Jebel El Akhouat, Ech Chehid salt dome, Northern Tunisia
The Jebel El Akhouat Zn-Pb-(Ba-Sr) ore deposit, located in the Tunisian Dome zone, is hosted mainly in the organic matter-rich Albian and Cenomanian–Turonian rocks. The orebodies occur mainly as open-space fil...

Microthermometry and noble gas isotope analysis of magmatic fluid inclusions in the Kerman porphyry Cu deposits, Iran: constraints on the source of ore-forming fluids
This paper reports microthermometric and noble gas isotope data for fluid inclusion assemblages (FIAs) with evidence of phase separation, i.e. coexisting vapor-rich and halite-saturated inclusions, hosted in t...

Open AccessPhase transitions in natural C-O-H-N-S fluid inclusions - implications for gas mixtures and the behavior of solid H2S at low temperatures
C–O–H–N–S-bearing fluids are known as one of the most challenging geochemical systems due to scarcity of available experimental data. H2S-rich fluid systems were recognized in a wide array of world-class mineral ...

Open AccessFluid evolution and ore deposition in the Harz Mountains revisited: isotope and crush-leach analyses of fluid inclusions
Hydrothermal fluid flow along fault zones in the Harz Mountains led to widespread formation of economic vein-type Pb–Zn ore and Ba–F deposits during the Mesozoic. We reconstruct the fluid flow system responsib...
