The study of active and fossil hydrothermal systems shows clay minerals to be a
fundamental tool for the identification and characterization of hydrothermal alteration facies …

Chlorite, a 2: 1: 1 phyllosilicate, has all the required attributes to form the basis of a
geothermometer: this mineral is ubiquitous in metamorphic, diagenetic, and hydrothermal …

Fungi have recently been found to comprise a significant part of the deep biosphere in
oceanic sediments and crustal rocks. Fossils occupying fractures and pores in Phanerozoic …

Pores related to organic matter and clay minerals provide significant storage space for
hydrocarbons in organic-rich shales. However, the pore structure evolution and its related …

Abstract Mineralization at the Cu-Au porphyry deposit of Batu Hijau, Indonesia, was
previously reported to be associated mainly within stockwork quartz veins accompanied by …

The advantages and limits of empirical, semi-empirical and thermodynamic methods
devoted to the estimation of chlorite-formation temperature are discussed briefly. The results …

Although forming one unified class, orogenic gold deposits may be associated with a range
of ore mineral assemblages controlled by a variety of gold deposition processes that have a …

Many studies have proved the usefulness of Li-mica and chlorite geochemistry as indicators
of the chemical and thermal evolution of magmatic systems. This study highlights the …

Chlorite is a common alteration product of fluid-rock interaction in hydrothermal deposits,
and it's compositional variations provides useful information about the physicochemical …

Biotite, white mica, and chlorite record petrological processes and pressure–temperature
conditions. Unfortunately, their crystal chemistry is complicated and thermodynamic …
