Transport
The low-temperature hydrothermal solution formed by diagenetic recrystallization of the carbonates then migrates into stratigraphic highs, such as folds, and typically also concentrates in fault zones at the margins of basement grabens.
If the solutions are not trapped successfully within the carbonate host, it is possible for the hydrothermal fluids to leak out into the ocean basin and form SEDEX lead-zinc deposits.

Famous quotes containing the word transport:
“One may disavow and disclaim vices that surprise us, and whereto our passions transport us; but those which by long habits are rooted in a strong and ... powerful will are not subject to contradiction. Repentance is but a denying of our will, and an opposition of our fantasies.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
