Geology of the ARROYO SECO Project |
|
Arroyo Seco is somewhat unique to Mexico in that the silver mineralization appears to be syn- sedimentary in nature, forming stratiform tabular lenses within three stacked sedimentary layers. Mineralization consists of tetrahedrite, tennantite, argentite, and minor galena, sphalerite, chalcopyrite and pyrite associated with barite, calcite, and quartz in disseminated sulfide zones.
