Litologías manganesíferas del área central de Ossa-Morena (SW de Badajoz)

Mangenese lithologies from Oliva de la Frontera area occur in the Cumbres-Hinojales unit (Ossa-Morena South-Central Belt) within a Lower Ordovician age volcanosedimentary sequence. Petrographic study allows to differentiate six Mn-Fe lithologies: Mn-crystal tuffs, Mn-shales, cotfcules, Mn-pyroxenoid...

Descripción
Sumario:Mangenese lithologies from Oliva de la Frontera area occur in the Cumbres-Hinojales unit (Ossa-Morena South-Central Belt) within a Lower Ordovician age volcanosedimentary sequence. Petrographic study allows to differentiate six Mn-Fe lithologies: Mn-crystal tuffs, Mn-shales, cotfcules, Mn-pyroxenoid rich rocks, braunite layers and hematite layers. Al/(Al+Fe-f-Mn) and Na/(Na+K) discriminating ratios support the above classification. Geologic, mineral, textural and geochemical data provide dues about the mixture process among volcanic, terrigene and chemical materials that originated the protolliths o f the metamorphic manganese lithologies
