Geochemistry of Triassic Carbonates: Exploration Guide to Pb–Zn Mineralization in North Tunisia

Abstract: The Triassic carbonate rocks in Northern Tunisia (Nappes, Domes, Jurassic Mountains zones), consist of massive carbonates, clays and gypsum with authigenic minerals. These are associated with several Pb-Zn deposits and occurrences. At Jebel Ichkeul, Bechateur and Oum Edeboua, these Triassic carbonates exhibit enrichment in Pb (0.32 to 228 ppm), Zn (17 to 261 ppm), Cd (5 to 6 ppm) and Co (0.3 to 89.5 ppm), with respect to their average contents in crustal carbonates. The enrichment is more pronounced at Oum Ede… Show more

“…On the basis of the results the chemical formulas of identified carbonate phases were calculated and probable crystal structures of these minerals were created. The results were compared with the data obtained by other scientists presented in their works 6 , 29 , 35 , 45 53 . The crystal structures of the carbonate phases were prepared on the basis of data from references 6 , 29 , 35 , 45 48 .…”
