Central Wales Orefield: Siderite was noted as a gangue mineral at several Central Wales mines, including Ystrad Einion, Geufron and Siglenlas, by Jones & Moreton (1977). However, all analyses done to date on the heavy, brown-weathering carbonates in the Central Wales veins have shown them to fall within the dolomite-ankerite series.
Iron in the siderite was not only derived from silicate weathering of high-Ti basalts in the sediment source regions followed by transport as ions by ground and surface waters, but was also generated from in situ alteration of the Fe-bearing minerals within the peat itself. In addition, ascending hydrothermal solutions would also contribute some Fe, with the Fe …
