Abstract

New isotope and mineral data on manganese carbonates of the Mazul deposit (Krasnoyarsk region) in combination with morphology of ore bodies suggest that the ores were formed in several stages with the involvement of meteoric solutions through infiltration and, possibly, exfiltration mechanisms. Based on the geological–geochemical data, manganese carbonates of the Mazul deposit may be ascribed to a new genetic subtype of the catagenesis (epigenesis) zone.
