Quantifying the role of hydrothermal alteration in creating geothermal and epithermal mineral resources: The Ohakuri ignimbrite (Taupō Volcanic Zone, New Zealand)
Hydrothermal fluids can alter the chemical and physical properties of the materials through
which they pass and can therefore modify the efficiency of fluid circulation. The role of …
