  • Metals Mining
DEF

Said of a mineral deposit formed contemporaneously with, and by essentially the same processes as, the enclosing rocks.

Les gîtes podiformes de chromite qui sont situés dans les tectonites mantelliques sont plus récents que les harzburgites hôtes, alors que ceux qui se rencontrent dans les séquences à cumulats sont vraisemblablement contemporains de leurs roches hôtes (minéralisation syngénétique).
