- Type
- Bedding-parallel antimony mineralisation in black shales and fibrous quartz veinlets
Massive or disseminated bedding-parallel antimony mineralisation in black shales, with fibrous quartz veinlets bearing zinkenite; stibnite, zinkenite and plagionite with 206Pb/204Pb of 18.308 to 18.338. 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. Coordinates not published (schematic map only).
