Quartz cathodoluminescent textures and trace elements in epithermal ore deposits

Published: Jan 1, 2011
Abstract
When viewed with scanning electron microscope-cathodoluminescence (SEM-CL), hydrothermal vein quartz displays textures that cannot be observed using other techniques. SEM-CL imaging is a powerful petrographic tool for working out the sequence of precipitation and dissolution events in a vein. When integrated with trace element data, these techniques can help constrain the physical and chemical evolution of hydrothermal systems and the nature of...
