Abstract
Indium occurs in many different types of ore deposits including volcanic-hosted and sedimentary exhalative massive base metal sulfide deposits, epithermal-style gold deposits, porphyry copper deposits, polymetallic base metal vein deposits, granite-related vein-stockwork tin-base metal deposits, and skarn deposits. A wide variety of indium-bearing ore deposits is described in the literature. Figure 3.1 and Chapter 10.2 summarize and classify the worldwide occurrences of known indium-bearing ore deposits and ore provinces.
