A significant tin deposit has been identified in the northeast part of the Late Proterozoic Arabian Shield. Cassiterite-topaz-quartz greisens are distributed over 16 km2 in flat-topped cupolas of a highly evolved, zinnwaldite-bearing alkali-feldspar granite which composes part of the silsilah ring complex (lat 26"06'N, long 4240'E). The 587 m.y. old alkali-feldspar granite is overlain by a cara...

The pegmatitic rocks located in the south-east of Côte d'Ivoire between Comoé basin and Sefwi belt are subject this study. geology region consists gneisses, granites, microgranites, amphibolites, mylonites metasediments. All these generally crosscut by quartz pegmatite lodes. petrographic studies allow us to discriminate four groups pegmatites on basis mineralogy: (i) beryl-muscovite bearing (A...

Physico-chemical characteristics and industrial potentials of lepidolites from Ijero-Aramoko pegmatite fields were investigated . Systematic mapping indicates that the lepidolite is associated with steeply inclined pegmatite intruded into the basement rocks of gneisses and schistose assemblages that are in places pulsed with isolated Pan-African granite. The lepidolite has a layered structure, ...

Abstract. The New Exploration Tools for European Pegmatite Green-Tech Resources (GREENPEG) spectral database contains the signature, obtained through reflectance spectroscopy studies, of pegmatites and minerals as well their host rocks. Samples include Nb–Y–F (NYF) Li–Cs–Ta (LCT) chemical types rocks from pegmatite locations in Austria, Ireland, Norway, Portugal, Spain. spectra (raw continuum-r...

The Yamrang Pegmatite in the Ikhabu Field, Eastern Nepal is Nepal’s primary source of aquamarine. This paper reports detailed mineralogy and whole rock granite pegmatite geochemistry, major trace element data for alkali feldspar muscovite order to classify aquamarine-bearing Pegmatite, elucidate beryl-saturation processes evaluate potential geochemical exploration tools beryl-pegmatites. Five i...

the felsic pegmatitic rocks are exposed in the north of golpayegan. the dominate mineral assemblage is quartz, k-feldspar, plagioclase, muscovite, tourmaline and garnet. the elevated spessartine content of the garnets in the studied rocks along with their idiomorphic shape, the absence of resorption feature and garnet-free country rocks may point to their magmatic origin and crystallization at ...

the granites south of mashhad are located in the north-east of iran and occur in the suture zone between the binalud and kopeh dagh areas. these s-type granites are peraluminous with an upper triassic age and include intersecting pegmatites. these pegmatites are homogenous and show simple mineralogical combinations which include k-feldspars (microcline and orthoclase), plagioclase, quartz, mica...
