Feli Sn deposit; Feli tin deposit


Tin deposit.
Network of two generations of cassiterite-bearing pegmatite dykes and quartz-pegmatite veins.

Host rocks: greywacke schist complex (quartzites, greywackes, schists, pelites, calc-silicate layers) affected by Hercynian deformation and metamorphism.
Earliest phase is low-grade greenschist-facies regional metamorphism.
Contact metamorphism (Lumbralas granite).
Second phase of regional metamorphism after intrusion: retrograde metamorphism (chloritization of biotite).

The two generations of pegmatite, intrude in tourmalinized micaschists, are connected with the intrusion of the granite and the second phase of deformation.
First generation: quartz pegmatite dykes, with quartz core and greisen selvages.
Second generation: pegmatite and quartz veins.
