KlappentextThe Metallogenic Map of the Erzgebirge/Vogtland area was created within the frame of the projectWISTAMERZ, aiming at the development of advanced methods for predicting the rare and high-tech metalspotential (RHTM, such as Ga, Ge, In, Li, Sb, Se, Sn, Ta, Te, W) in large areas. As an example, the famous Erzgebirge/Vogtland area, well-known for centuries for its mineral wealth, was selected.New geochemical data were gathered by a multi-element stream-sediment survey and combined withportable XRF technologies for on-site identification of hard-to-find disseminated and oxidized mineralisation.New unconventional RHTM mineralisations have been detected within low-grade geochemical anomaliesand in rocks previously regarded as non-prospective. New exploration models have been developed.The combination of lower Paleozoic sedimentary and rifting related hydrothermal/volcanogenic processes isrecognised as the key precondition for the metallogenic predisposition of the large Erzgebirge mining region.Processes of collision-related metamorphic re-distribution of metals and their assimilation during processesof formation of melts and granitic intrusion led to the formation of a wide range of mineral occurrences ofdifferent shape and structural position, from stratiform, granite-related high temperature formations, andstructure-controlled hydrothermal veins to Mesozoic and Cenozoic placers.Late small intrusions led to a further re-distribution of metals within large metalliferous intrusives intobreccia pipes and their environment even deep inside of big granite batholiths.Iron bearing metalliferous sediments were transformed into metamorphic and contact-metamorphic skarns with rich Sn and W mineralisation.The metallogenic model positions the different mineral deposit types into a logic chain of metallogenicevents forming within a history of almost 450 M years.As an important practical consequence the reviewed metallogenic concepts open the doors for newdiscoveries of RHTM occurrences especially in the following environments:· Geochemical anomalies of Au, Sb, Bi, In, Li, Sn, W· Meta-sediments with/without reactive rocks, especially on top of hidden granite intrusives· Breccia pipes and structures within bigger granite batholites on top of small intrusionsUsing a combination of knowledge-based (exploration models) and data driven methods (artificial neuralnetworks) mineral predictive maps have been calculated for key mineralisation types.
