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
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 CONT
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

Les températures conventionnelles qui limitent les domaines ou «étages» thermiques ne sont pas universellement admises. [...] En outre il faut prendre garde aux traquenards terminologiques. L'hypothermal des Européens - qui correspond au katathermal de Schneiderhorn - ne correspond pas à l'hypothermal des Américains. En général ceux-ci n'individualisent pas les pneumatolytiques et leurs hypothermaux correspondent donc à nos hypothermaux et pneumatolytiques réunis. 3, record 2, French, - hypothermal
