MINERALOGICAL-GEOCHEMICAL AND STRUCTURAL FEATURES OF ULTRAMAFIC ROCKS AND CHROMITITES OF THE MALY BASHART CHROMITE-BEARING ZONE OF THE SOUTH KRAKA MASSIF (SOUTH URALS) by D.E. Saveliev, I.A. Blinov, I.I. Musabirov

“…Symmetric petrographic zonation of the deposit (peridotites – dunites – chromitites – dunites – peridotites) is accompanied by mineralogical-geochemical zonation, which is manifested in a regular increase in the Cr# value of spinel and Mg# value of olivine from peridotites to dunites and chromitites. A chemical gap between the composition of spinel from peridotites and dunites/chromitites is replaced by gradual compositional transition at the contacts between host peridotite and fine dunite veins. …”
