Abstract: | Investigations on S, C, O, Sr, and Pb isotopes in ores, gangue, and country rocks of the Chaudfontaine ore deposit confirm that interbedded barite and white sparry calcites are cogenetic. They emphasize the marine origin of S and the nonmarine origin of the metals. They underline the important role played by the bacterial reduction at the site of deposition. Hypotheses concerning the source of the metals and the nature of the brines involved in their transportation are briefly discussed. |
