The chemistry of hydrothermal magnetite: A review
Abstract Magnetite (Fe 3 O 4) is a well-recognized petrogenetic indicator and is a common
accessory mineral in many ore deposits and their host rocks. Recent years have seen an …

Did the massive magnetite “lava flows” of El Laco (Chile) form by magmatic or hydrothermal processes? New constraints from magnetite composition by LA-ICP-MS
Abstract The El Laco magnetite deposits consist of more than 98% magnetite but show field
textures remarkably similar to mafic lava flows. Therefore, it has long been suggested that …
