Polymetallic deposits in the Famatinian orogen of the Sierras Pampeanas of San Luis and Córdoba: Fluids, sources and emplacement model

The famatinian cycle determined a mineralising episode between ∼ 385 and ∼ 292 Ma into the Sierras Pampeanas of San Luis and Córdoba. This episode, related to N - S first order shear zones and granitoids, formed polymetallic linear domains with W, Ag, Pb, Zn, Au and associated metals, within metamor...
