Suivant la température de formation, on peut, d'après Lindgren, distinguer trois types de filons : les filons hypothermaux (500-300°) dont la gangue contient des minéraux de haute température tels que pyroxènes, grenats, tourmaline, magnétite, pyrrhotine; [...] 3, record 1, French, - filon%20hypothermal

Dans les filons hypothermaux, [la zonalité] est réputée rare. [...] Cependant, si le zonage n'est pas apparent du point de vue minéralogique, il apparaît assez souvent en confrontant les données chimiques. 4, record 1, French, - filon%20hypothermal

Los filones hipotermales contienen minerales cuya formación requiere temperaturas de 300 a 500 °C (piroxeno, anfíbol, granate, apatito, etc.). Suelen hallarse a proximidad de importantes intrusiones de rocas ígneas, en terrenos antes muy profundos y ahora más cercanos al suelo, considerablemente rebajado por la erosión. 1, record 1, Spanish, - fil%C3%B3n%20hipotermal
