Abstract: | The fluid inclusions occurring in quartz of cassiterite-bearing quartz veins from two localities of Southern Brittany have been studied (microthermometry and chemical analysis). In both localities, two sorts of fluids have been recognized: 1. Early fluids, related to the precipitation of cassiterite. Those fluids are closed to a chloride-bearing aqueous solution, with very little CO2 and hydrocarbons. The salinity is rather low (6 to 9 wt % eq. NaCl). The inclusions homogenize between 150 à 300 °C. The K/Na atomic ratio is about 0,1. From these data and the mineralogical associations (muscovite + kaolinite), the physical and chemical properties of the solution at the time of cassiterite crystallization have been calculated: temperature 350°C, pressure 800 bars; molalities of NaCl, KCl and HCl are, respectively about 1, 0.1 and 0.01 (pH at 25 °C, 1 bar 2, lower than 3 in any case). 2. Late fluids, related to an important kaolinization. They are generally colder, and have a either lower or higher salinity, than the early fluids. |
