Abstract: | The localization of economic sedimentary iron ore and phosphorite resources is discussed in comparative aspects. It is shown that the major economic resources of iron ore are hosted in Precambrian rocks, whereas the phosphorites are related to Upper Phanerozoic. High-temperature hydrothermal solutions served as an important source of iron for jaspilite ores. The low P2O5content therein indicates that the phosphorus deposition was only weakly related to the hydrothermal activity. Thus, the hydrothermal origin of phosphorite is denied from the geochemical standpoint. |
