Volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) deposits form in subaqueous environments from
circulating hydrothermal fluids heated by volcanic activity. These deposits form as sulphide …

The Keketale Pb–Zn deposit is located in the Devonian volcanic-sedimentary Maizi basin of
the Altay orogenic belt. The mineralization at Keketale is hosted in marbles and deformed …

Significant links exist between the sulfur cycle, sulfur geochemistry of sedimentary systems,
and ore deposits over the course of Earth history. A picture emerges of an Archean and …

This paper documents the solid phases associated to acid mine drainage (AMD) at the
Tharsis mines (SW Spain). It provides an inventory of the AMD-precipitates, describing their …

Subduction-related magmas have higher volatile contents than mid-ocean ridge basalts,
which affects the dynamics of associated submarine hydrothermal systems. Interaction of …

The Iberian Pyrite Belt (IPB) is recognized as having one of the major concentrations of
volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) deposits on Earth. Original resources of about 2000 Mt …

Rare earth elements (REE) were analyzed in river waters, acid mine waters, and extracts of
secondary precipitates collected in the Iberian Pyrite Belt. The obtained concentrations of …

Black shales and massive sulfides represent reduced lithofacies that require isolation from
oxic environments to be preserved. This, together with the sedimentary affinity of both …

The effects of post-VMS (volcanogenic massive sulfide) deformation/metamorphism on
sulfide trace element and sulfur-lead isotopic compositions remain unclear. The greenschist …

A one-year field trial was conducted at the abandoned mine site of Tharsis (Spain) in order
to assess the potential value of waste sludge generated during the processing of marble …
