Trentino, Italy
Volcanogenic massive sulfidesCu
- Type
- Metamorphosed volcanogenic massive sulfide
A copper deposit of the Southeastern Alps, analysed to build a lead reference database for tracing the origin of prehistoric copper. It belongs to the Valsugana VMS isotopic group.
206Pb/204Pb isotope ratio, no unit Values of the same system
Standard : NIST SRM 981
| Value | Range | n | Mineral or matrix | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 17.911 ± 0.048 | 17.88 / 17.989 | 8 | copper ore (sulfides, a few secondary minerals) Mean and standard deviation of 8 analyses from Table 2. Secondary copper minerals can be more radiogenic than primary sulfides. | Artioli et al. (2016), A lead-isotope database of copper ores from the Southeastern Alps:… |
