Kupferschiefer-type deposits occur typically as zonally distributed, disseminated sulphides at oxidation-reduction boundaries in anoxic rocks at the base of a marine or large-scale saline lacustrine transgressive cycle overlying or interbedded with continental redbeds. Redbeds and evaporites are characteristic associated rock types. Copper is the most important metal found in these deposits and silver and cobalt are the most important byproduct or, in a few localities, coproduct metals. 1, record 9, English, - Kupferschiefer%2Dtype%20deposit

There appears to be a possible gradation in type and environment from deposits such as the Kupferschiefer, which are dominantly composed of normal sedimentary material and which occur in a non-volcanic sedimentary environment, through deposits such as Sullivan, which are richer in sulphur and may have some minor volcanic formations in their host succession, to the volcanic massive sulphide deposits which are mainly composed of sulphides and occur in host rocks dominated by volcanics. 2, record 9, English, - Kupferschiefer%2Dtype%20deposit
