Ref.: Bull. Minéral. , 1987, 110, pp. 613-622.

Quartz veins and greisens in two-mica Hercynian granite batholith.
Mineralization linked with Late Hercynian microgranite intrusion.
Four stages of mineralization :
Stage I : Quartz + hubnerite
Stage II : Cassiterite, arsenopyrite, muscovite (greisinization and muscovitization of schists)
Stage III : Sphalerite, pyrrhotite, stannite, chalcopyrite, pyrite, fluorite, chlorite
Stage IV : Galena and Ag/Pb/Bi-sulfosalts
