  • Description:
    "The literature on hydrothermal deposits is not large, but extends well back in time. Rona (see citation number 0950911) has traced professional interest in this topic back to 1966. Interest in metalliferous muds and sediments, a related topic with citations represented in this Packaged Search, may extend back to 1948 or even earlier. Polymetallic sulfides are a class of hydrothermal deposits and consist of such minerals as iron, copper, and zinc sulfides with minor constituents of gold, silver, vanadium, beryllium, cobalt, and others. Sulfide deposits on land is also an extensive topic, and a few of these citations are highlighted here also. Aquatic Sciences and Fisheries Abstracts, from which this Search was taken, was found to be the most systematic of the databases examined in its coverage of marine polymetallic sulfides. However, some coverage of this topic currently exists in other databases"--Introduction.
