Reichensteinerberg (Puderbach)
Rhenish Massif (Rheinisches Schiefergebirge), Puderbach locality, Germany
Other hydrothermalPb-Zn-Fe (Cu, Sb)
- Type
- Siderite-Pb-Zn veins overprinted by Sb sulfosalts
Chalcopyrite-rich siderite ore replaced by Cu sulfosalts; bournonites slightly more radiogenic (206Pb/204Pb 18.256-18.281) than galena of the other overprinted veins. 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).
