Hüdrotermilised

Hydrothermalization is a geological process involving hot, chemically active fluids interacting with rocks. These fluids, typically heated by magmatic activity deep within the Earth's crust, can dissolve minerals from existing rocks and transport them. As these fluids move through the subsurface, they can precipitate dissolved minerals in new locations, altering the composition and texture of the host rocks. This process is a significant factor in the formation of various mineral deposits, including metallic ores like gold, silver, and copper, as well as gemstones. The temperature and pressure conditions, as well as the chemical composition of the hydrothermal fluids, dictate the types of minerals that form. Hydrothermal alteration can also play a role in the formation of geothermal energy resources. The study of hydrothermalization is crucial for understanding ore genesis, subsurface fluid flow, and the evolution of the Earth's crust.
