'{T}savorite' occurs in quartz veins and rarely as nodular concretions. {T}wo factors control mineralization: (1) lithostratigraphy, with 'tsavorite' in association with pyrite and graphite confined to quartz veins within the metasomatized graphitic gneiss: and (2) structure, with the mineralized veins characteristically controlled by tight isoclinal folds associated with shearing.}, keywords = {{T}anzania ; {L}emshuku {M}ine ; "{T}savorite" ; {Q}uartz vein ; {L}ithostratigraphic ; and structural controls}, booktitle = {}, journal = {{C}omptes {R}endus {G}eoscience}, volume = {342}, numero = {10}, pages = {778--785}, ISSN = {1631-0713}, year = {2010}, DOI = {10.1016/j.crte.2010.06.003}, URL = {https://www.documentation.ird.fr/hor/fdi:010052900}, }
