Fractionation of Rare Earth Elements in Greisen and Hydrothermal Veins Related to A-Type Magmatism by Mikael Tillberg, Olga M. Maskenskaya, Henrik Drake, Johan K. Hogmalm, Curt Broman, Anthony E. Fallick, Mats E. Åström

“…The greisen consists of coarse-grained quartz, muscovite, and fluorite, whereas the veins mainly contain quartz, calcite, epidote, chlorite, and fluorite in order of abundance. A temporal and thus genetic link between the granite and the greisen/veins is established via high spatial resolution in situ Rb-Sr dating, supported by several other isotopic signatures (δ34S, 87Sr/86Sr, δ18O, and δ13C). …”
