Fluid inclusions
Tiny droplets of the original fluid trapped in a mineral as it grew. Their homogenisation temperature and salinity describe the ore fluid; the water extracted from them by crushing or heating gives its δD directly.
Composition
From a few µm to 100 µm; liquid and vapour phases, sometimes daughter minerals (halite).
