Carbonate Hosted Lead Zinc Ore Deposits - Source

Source

The source of sulfur and metals within carbonate-hosted lead-zinc ore deposits is the host carbonate sequence where diagenetic recrystallisation of low-temperature aragonite into a higher-temperature calcite form prompts adsorbed zinc to be metamorphically ejected from the crystal lattice of the carbonate minerals. The zinc then enters the formational solutions and typically forms a chelated bond with hydrocarbons which typically contain sulfur.

Famous quotes containing the word source:

    The dream of reason produces monsters. Imagination deserted by reason creates impossible, useless thoughts. United with reason, imagination is the mother of all art and the source of all its beauty.
    —Francisco José De Goya Y Lucientes (1746–1828)

    The practice of S/M is the creation of pleasure.... And that’s why S/M is really a subculture. It’s a process of invention. S/M is the use of a strategic relationship as a source of pleasure.
    Michel Foucault (1926–1984)

    If, for instance, they have heard something from the postman, they attribute it to “a semi-official statement”; if they have fallen into conversation with a stranger at a bar, they can conscientiously describe him as “a source that has hitherto proved unimpeachable.” It is only when the journalist is reporting a whim of his own, and one to which he attaches minor importance, that he defines it as the opinion of “well-informed circles.”
    Evelyn Waugh (1903–1966)
