Abstract


MASSIVE COPPER SULPHIDE MINERALIZATION IN DOLOMITES FROM THE LUBIN MINE (FORE-SUDETIC MONOCLINE)

Abstract. Massive ore mineralization in dolomites is described for the first time from the Fore-Sudetic copper deposits. Three cross-sections from the Lubin Mine were studied using polarized optical (PLM) and scanning electron (SEM-EDS) microscopy, also cathodoluminescence (CL) and XRD. Massive mineralization, composed mainly of chalcocite with calcite admixture, occurs in dolomites as horizontal pseudovein, locally underlain by clay-carbonate breccia and shale. Underlying dolomites were partly calcitized (dedolomitized). Various calcite generations are characterized in detail. A model of the formation of massive mineralization is proposed. Mesotectonic intralayer movements caused the cracking of dolomite layers and the formation of breccia. Calcitization led to both dedolomitization and the partial infilling of cracks. Mineralizing fluids infilled the cracks completely, partly replacing calcite and adjacent rocks.
