Processes and Ore Deposits of Ultramafic-Mafic Magmas through Space and Time
Description
Key Features
- Elucidates the relationships between tectonic settings and magmatic ore mineralization
- Provides the links between magma generation in the mantle and ore mineralization at crustal levels
- Features the latest research on changing patterns in magmatic ore mineralization through time and their bearing on the chemical evolution of the Earth’s mantle
