Fluorite Mineralization Related to Carbonatitic Magmatism in the Western Transbaikalia: Insights from Fluid Inclusions and Trace Element Composition
Fluorite mineralization associated with different types of magmatism is common in the Western Transbaikalia. This study deals with Arshan, Yuzhnoe, and Ulan-Ude fluorite occurrences, which are the most significant examples of carbonatite-related fluorite mineralization in the region. The present pap...
