Hydrothermal Phenomenon Associated with Lahor Pegmatoid/Granite Complex, Kohistan
Abstract
Pb-Zn-Mo and uranium mineralization spatially associated with Labor pegmatite/granite complex and enclosing metasediments is examined in the light of new data on ore minerals. Several ore paragenetic associations are described and it is concluded that polyphase mineralization processes are responsible for the ore associations described.
