Abstract
Three chlorite samples obtained from mining areas in Mendoza, Argentina, have been studied by wet chemical analysis, X-ray diffraction and57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy. The total Fe contents and the Fe2+/Fe3+ atomic ratio are used to characterize the samples and are discussed in connection to the likely genesis of the minerals.
