Trace-element characteristics of magnetite from Kiruna-type iron oxide-apatite deposits indicate a magmatic origin. A possible scenario currently considered for the magmatic formation, apart from melt immiscibility, is ...

portant source of iron and other elements (e.g., REE, P, U, Ag and Co). However, their formation remain controversial. In this study, we focus on magnetite from the unaltered Kiruna-type Los Colorados IOA deposit (~350 Mt ...

Kiruna-type iron oxide–apatite (IOA) deposits are an important source of Fe ore, and two radically different processes are being actively investigated for their origin. One hypothesis invokes direct crystallization of ...

Kiruna-type iron oxide-apatite (IOA) deposits are an important source of Fe ore, and two radically different processes are being actively investigated for their origin. One hypothesis invokes direct crystallization of ...

Iron oxide-apatite (IOA) or Kiruna-type deposits are an important source of iron and other elements including REE, U, Ag, and Co. The genesis of these deposits remains controversial, with models that range from a purely ...
