Other hydrothermalPb-Zn-Fe (Sb)
- Type
- Overprinted siderite-Pb-Zn veins and quartz-stibnite veins
Siderite-Pb-Zn veins (Maria level, upper stope) replaced by Cu-Pb-Sb sulfosalts (tetrahedrite, semseyite, meneghinite, bournonite, boulangerite) near quartz-stibnite veins 100-150 m away. Galena and replacement sulfosalts identical (206Pb/204Pb 18.202 to 18.212); stibnite (18.269-18.272) and Pb-Sb sulfosalts of the quartz veins (18.326-18.407) more radiogenic: mixing between lead inherited from galena and lead brought by the antimony-bearing fluids. Pb from Wagner and Schneider (2002): late-Variscan mesothermal antimony mineralisation, either as quartz-stibnite veins (fibrous quartz, stibnite and Pb-Sb sulfosalts) or as Cu-Pb-Sb sulfosalts replacing earlier Pb-Zn veins.
