Abstract

Megascopically visible sedimentary and diagenetic textures are very common in and around the ores of the Cu-Pb-Zn-Ag deposit of Colquijirca, Central Peru. The present paper summarizes the most frequent ones of these fabrics, such as various types of stratification, geopetal textures, and slumping.
