Synthesis of the fluid inclusions data. (a) Optical microscopy observation of inclusions arranged along crystal growth planes (arrow). (b) Zoom-in on a two-phase aqueous inclusion (arrow). (c) Distribution of the salinity values calculated from microthermometry. (d) Pressure-temperature diagrams and isochores of a low salinity system (full line) and an intermediate salinity system (dashed line) and estimated trapping temperature () assuming a 1 km hydrostatic or lithostatic pressure.
