Fractures, Fluid Flow and Mineralization. Edited by K. J. W. McCaffrey,
L. Lonergan and J. J. Wilkinson.
Geological Society Special Publication no. 155
ISBN 1-86239-034-7
Faulting and fracturing play an importnat role in enhancing
permeability, facilitating fluid flow and controlling hydrothermal
mineralization in rocks. This is the main theme of this volume and the
papers included are intended to provide an overview of current ideas at
the interfaces of structural geology, fluid flow and mineralization
research. Included are some speculative but provocative ideas that
should stimulate a re-examination of existing concepts regarding fluid
flow in fracture systems and the formation of hydrthermal mineral
deposits. Also highlighted are recent advances showing the significance
of the development of the fracture connectivity in focusing fluid flow.
the new collection concludes with a thematic set of papers presenting
new research on the gensis of the world famous Caboniferous base metal
despoits of Ireland.
This volume is intended for geoscientist studying the flow of fluids
through fault, vein and fracture systems or the genesis of mineral
deposits and will be of interest principally to those involved in the
minerals industry and in academia.
