Geochemical Signature of Magmatic-Hydrothermal Fluids Exsolved from the Beauvoir Rare-Metal Granite (Massif Central, France): Insights from LA-ICPMS Analysis of Primary Fluid Inclusions

Figure 5

Photographs of thick sections of the studied samples from the Beauvoir granite ((a), (b)) and the La Bosse stockwork ((c), (d)). Representative microphotographs of fluid inclusions observed in primary quartz from the Beauvoir granite (e) and the La Bosse stockwork (f) are shown. Note the density of disseminated fluid inclusions within the primary quartz and the presence of secondary fluid inclusions planes. Ab: albite; Fbr: ferberite; Lpd: lepidolite; Qtz: quartz; Toz: topaz.
