Peridot Exploration: A Geologist's Field Guide to Finding Gemstones
Peridot exploration in ultramafic cumulates focuses on locating gem-quality olivine within fractures and sheared zones, often associated with secondary magmatic or metamorphic fluid injections. These geological settings are typically enriched in minerals like magnesite, clinochrysotile asbestos, and serpentine, which occur as fracture-filled veins. The sheared zones and fluid pathways provide ideal conditions for the crystallization of peridot, particularly in areas where olivine has been preserved or recrystallized during hydrothermal alteration. Understanding the structural geology, mineral associations, and alteration patterns is essential for identifying promising exploration targets,...

Field Guide: Identifying Chromite-Bearing Serpentinized Dunite in Ultramafic Cumulates on Field
Просмотров 1852 месяца назад
Serpentinized dunites form when dunites, which are olivine-rich rocks originating from the mantle, undergo alteration due to the presence of water and other fluids. Olivine, the primary mineral in dunite, is unstable at the Earth's surface and reacts with water to form serpentine minerals, such as chrysotile and lizardite, in a process known as serpentinization. This transformation occurs under...

Просмотров 843 месяца назад
The geological sequence of the study area consists of the following rock units: • Quartzites: These are the most prominent units, characterized by their hardness, density, and medium to thick masses. The color of the quartzites varies from rusty brown due to weathering to whitish and light creamy hues in fresher surfaces. Younger quartz veins, often deformed, intrude these quartzites and show s...

Uncovering Malachite with Chromite: Traces of Copper Mineralization in Ultramafic Rocks
Просмотров 3685 месяцев назад
The association of malachite with a chromite lens in ultramafic rocks suggests secondary copper mineralization. Malachite, a copper carbonate hydroxide mineral, typically forms in the oxidation zone of copper deposits where copper sulfides are exposed to weathering and oxidizing conditions. Finding malachite alongside chromite in ultramafic rocks could indicate that there are minor, localized z...
