The study of fluid inclusions is important for understanding various geologic processes
involving geofluids. However, there are a number of problems that are frequently …

The historic silver mining district of Freiberg (Germany) comprises hydrothermal vein-style
mineralization of Permian and Cretaceous age. We compare sphalerite compositions with …

Aqueous fluids containing various amounts of salts are common in many geologic
environments. In most environments, NaCl, KCl or CaCl 2 is the dominant salt, but MgCl 2 or …

Chapter 1 of this volume (Bodnar 2003a) introduced the subject of fluid inclusion research
and dealt with the various processes that lead to the entrapment of fluid inclusions. This …

A fluid inclusion provides microthermometric data that can be used to infer trapping
conditions only if the inclusion satisfies several criteria (Roedder 1984). First, the inclusion …

BACKGROUND Volcanoes are surface loci where heat and matter are transferred from the
inner Earth and where the temperatures and pressures of magma, rocks, and fluids change …

Outcrops of the middle Eagle Ford Formation in south-central Texas reveal well-developed
joint networks in subhorizontal competent carbonate (chalk) beds and less well developed …

The world-class Loulo mining district (15.5 Moz resource), in the Birimian terrane of western
Mali, contains a range of mineralogically diverse styles of orogenic gold mineralization. The …

The abundance of H 2 O-rich fluid inclusions in minerals is testimony to the ubiquity and
geochemical importance of aqueous solutions in the Earth's crust. Water is one of the two …

The carbonate-dominated Malm aquifer in the Bavarian Molasse Basin in Southern
Germany is being widely exploited and explored for geothermal energy. Despite favorable …
