[...] le métamorphisme général [...] peut intervenir de deux façons en métallogénie : soit métamorphiser un gisement existant d'origine sédimentaire, volcano-sédimentaire ou volcanique, soit exprimer des éléments métalliques diffus dans la roche soumise au métamorphisme qui deviennent ainsi exploitables. Les gisements métamorphisés sont généralement stratiformes, plus ou moins déformés par les plissements intenses qu'ils ont subis. Leur minéralogie est particulière, souvent très riche en espèces rares. 4, record 1, French, - gisement%20m%C3%A9tamorphis%C3%A9
