Hydrothermal Alteration of Granitic Rocks and its Possible Bearing on the Genesis of Mineral Deposits in the Southern Black Forest, Germany
Economic Geology and the Bulletin of the Society of Economic Geologists (July 1974), 69(4):532-544
Abstract:
A considerable amount of lead and zinc, as well as fluorine and barium, has been set free from Hercynian granites and associated rocks of the southern Black Forest by hydrothermal alteration. It is conceivable that the release of these elements is responsible for the genesis of lead- and zinc-bearing barite-fluorite veins in this area.
