Description
The focus will be on weathering processes and fluid-rock interactions, but above all on the structural and textural constraints that enable us to propose innovative and original models of constrained deposits. In this course, we will emphasize the structural specificity of each deposit and the dangers of the sometimes indiscriminate application of textbook models.
Objectives
In this module, we will provide students with specialized knowledge through the acquisition of scientific concepts—both theoretical and applied—regarding the formation mechanisms of vein-type mineralizations.
Mandatory Prerequisites
Tectonics, mineralogy, microscopy, fieldwork, magmatism.
Knowledge Assessment
Comprehensive ongoing monitoring.
