| Summary | (Plain Language Summary, not published)
This data set depicts the global distribution of a broad, newly recognized (circa 1998) class of metallic mineral deposits characterized by substantial
enrichment of iron oxide which is interpreted by scientists to be related to regional magmatic activity and hydrothermal alteration. Economically important auxiliary metals may include copper, gold, uranium, and rare earth elements. World class
mined deposits of this type include the Olympic Dam (Australia), Candelaria (Chile), Kirunavaara (Sweden), Bayan Obo (China), and Magnitogorsk (Russia - Southern Ural Mountains). |
