Abstract

Shekarbeig BARITE deposit is located 46 km southwest of Mahabad in northwestern part of the Sanandaj-Sirjan zone. The outcropped rock units in the area are Late Protrozoic metamorphosed volcano-sedimentary rocks, equivalent to Kahar Formation. The main ore mineral occurs as stratiform BARITE lenses in three horizons accompanied by sulfide minerals as massive and/or parallel bands within metamorphosed rhyolitic tuffs (metatuff). The deposit footwall is composed of phyllite and slate crosscut by silicic and sulfide-bearing BARITE veins and veinlets (stringer zone). Primary minerals in the ore are mainly BARITE, pyrite, marcasite, chalcopyrite and bornite and secondary minerals are chalcocite, covellite, malachite, siderite, goethite, hematite and other iron hydroxides. Gangue minerals include quartz, sericite, calcite, dolomite, feldspar and chlorite. In terms of metallic ores, the SHEKARBEIG deposit does not vary much having only pyrite and chalcopyrite. Types of FLUID INCLUSIONs in the SHEKARBEIG deposit are two-phase liquid-vapour (LV), mono-phase vapour and mono-phase liquid, two-phase liquid-vapour being the dominant type in both stringer and stratiform parts. SULFUR ISOTOPE data indicate that seawater was the main mineralizing fluid for SHEKARBEIG mineralization. These data suggest that complete reduction of recent seawater sulfate and the rate of mixing of hydrothermal solution with cold waters in deep parts of the basin may result in precipitation of large amount of sulfides in the stringer and stratifrom zones. On the other hand, partial reduction of recent seawater sulfates provided required sulfur for the deposition of BARITE. Geological evidence, evaluation, lithostratigraphy, mineralization geometry and the results of FLUID INCLUSION and SULFUR ISOTOPE studies for samples from the SHEKARBEIG deposit indicate derivation of the hydrothermal fluids of low salinity and moderate temperature from seawater and circulation and upward movement by a heating source (probably subvolcanic intrusions) and finally cooling and deposition of the fluids as sulfate and sulfide on the sea floor due to mixing with seawater, similar to MASSIVE SULFIDE Kuroko-type deposits.
