M IN ERALS OF THE HYDROTALCITE GROUP IN METASOMATICALLY ALTERED CARBONATE ROCKS FROM ZAWIERCIE, S POLAND
A b s t a c t . M inerals of the hydrotalcite-manasseite group were identified in sam ples from two borehols in Zawiercie (ZMZ-9, RK-1). The minerals were found in calciphire bodies (RK-1) and in one small, m etasom atic veinlet (ZMZ-9) formed in M iddle Devonian dolom ites. Alteration of dolomitic sedim ents w as genetically connected with infiltration fluids that caused formation of a gam et-pyroxene skam . Inves
tigations have revealed the presence of both hydrotalcite and m anasseite. Besides, in few places of the veinlet there occurs a mineral, which has been recognized as iowaite.
