A two-stage, transient heat and mass transfer model for tht granodiorite intrusion at Seriphos, Greece, and the associated formation of contact metasomatic skarn and Fe- ore deposits.

Abstract

At Seriphos, Cyclades, Greece, the shallow intrusion of a granodiorite pluton produced a contact metamorphic aureole and extensive contact metasomatic skarn and Fe-ore deposits. Based on geological evidence a simplified, one-dimensional, two-stage mathematical model is developed describing the coupled transfer of heat and mass during the thermal evolution of the intrusive system.-from Authors
