Sedimentary hosted deposits are the most importance source of lead and zinc and totalize the twenty-three percent of the world’s copper production. This session covers the broad range of deposits hosted in sedimentary basins, including Sedimentary Exhalative, Mississippi Valley Type, Vein-type and Sedimentary Hosted Copper Deposits. This session will explore the numerous aspects related to the critical factors involved in the genesis of these sedimentary hosted base metal deposits: 1) large-scale geodynamic setting of mineralization; 2) lithological and structural controls on deposits with special emphasis on the tectono-thermal evolution of the basin; 3) the origin of the metals and sulphur; 4) geochronology 5) the source and geochemistry of the mineralizing fluids; 6) fluid drive mechanisms; 7) the metals transport and precipitation mechanisms and 10) the main factors that help to preserved them.
