Abstract

The petrographical and geochemical characteristics of some basic sills and dykes from Southern Rhenish Schiefergebirge are described. The dykes are generally more altered than the sills and are classified into two types according to their relation to the lead-zinc veins found in the area. The distribution of some trace elements in the sills and dykes is given and the nature and mechanism of alteration are discussed.
