In most published hydrothermal ore deposit models, the main agent of metal transport is an
aqueous liquid. However, there is increasing evidence from volcanic vapors, geothermal …

Laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) has become a
most powerful technique for the elemental analysis of individual, polyphase inclusions …

A fundamental question in the study of magmatic-hydrothermal ore deposits is whether the
mineralization potential of intrusions was already predetermined by the metal content of the …

Formation of hydrothermal ore deposits requires a fluid with the capability to transport and
deposit metals, and the sources and physical and chemical characteristics of these …

Empirical equations fitted to the experimental data of R. Hilbert and M. Gehrig have been
used in a BASIC program to locate temperature pressure coordinates of isochores for H 2 O …

Sodium chloride (NaCl) is often the most common salt in natural fluids (eg, Fyfe et al., 1978).
Consequently, phase equilibrium (PTX) and volumetric data (PVTX) for H2O–NaCl are often …

Realistic simulations of fluid flow in geologic systems have severely been hampered by the
lack of a consistent formulation for fluid properties for binary salt–water fluids over the …

Synthetic fluid inclusions were experimentally produced by equilibrating small fractured
prisms of quartz with aqueous solutions at temperatures from 300° to 700° C and pressures …

The Eocene epoch in the Great Basin of western North America was a period of profuse
magmatism and hydrothermal activity. During that period, the Carlin-type gold deposits in …

A qualitative model for the formation of granite-related mesothermal cassiterite (-wolframite)
deposits is derived from a review of geologic evidence and is then tested quantitatively with …
