Río Padrón
Bearing lithium Pegmatite veins intruded in granulitic-sillimanite-cordierite gneiss, leucogranites and granoblastic marble with tungsten-bismuth ores (Los Alemanes Adit in Puerto Mancilla). The site is boundary to the south with a small stream located in a low angle shear zone with paleozoic schist and graphitic phyllite.
Rubellite crystal up to 2cm were found very rare in a pocket with reddish brown clay, microcline, quartz and schorl tourmaline. Las Rubelitas de la zona fueron halladas por Fernando Mancilla Vázquez en el año 1988
Also at the head of the basin close to the contact zone between lherzolites and granoblastic banded marble, a calcium skarn has been recognized. Mineral assemblage include vesuvianite, tremolite, grossular garnet, epidote, clinoclore and clinozoisite. Graphite were also found in massive veins, subhorizontal shear zone in serpentinized peridotites and kinzigites.

| ⓘ Phlogopite ? Formula: KMg3(AlSi3O10)(OH)2 Fluorescence: Yellow fluorescence under shortwave Description: Mica from Río del Padrón is found in pegmatites so phlogopite is unlikely.
As these pegmatites contain elbaite, hence lithium, could be lepidolite. |
