This book describes the mineralization process of barite-fluorite deposits in southeastern Sichuan, Yangtze Block, China. Mainly through systematic field geological surveys and detailed indoor research work, the typical barite-fluorite deposits in this area were analyzed using a variety of analysis methods such as single fluid inclusion LA-ICP-MS composition analysis, trace rare earth element analysis, H-O-S-Sr isotope analysis, F element content analysis, and Sm-Nd geochronological analysis. By in-depth analysis of the ore-forming environment, mineralization process and geological characteristics of barite-fluorite deposits, the following were determined: (1) the source of ore-forming fluids of barite-fluorite deposits and (2) the migration, concentration, enrichment, and evolution of ore-forming sources, exploring the formation mechanism of barite-fluorite deposits. Summarizing the mineralization regularity of the deposit in this area of China provides a new insight and basis for the study of similar types of deposits in the world.
Excerpt from The Barite Deposits of Missouri and the Geology of the Barite District: A Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Ogden Graduate School of Science, in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Department of Geology Schoolcraft suggests on page 101 that the barite might be used as a flux. Litton1 in his report on the lead mines of south eastern Missouri mentions the minerals of the following metals as being the only ones that were important: Pb, Fe, Cu, Ni, Co, Zn, and Mn. Apparently the mining of barite had not yet begun at that time. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com Th...
