MP94_175_001The Apigania Bay vein system is hosted in marbles and schists of the Blueschist unit. Although the Apigania and Panormos Bay mineralizations are different by more than one feature; they share several geological, mineralogical, and geochemical attributes. These similarities suggest a common origin, but a different evolutionary phase of the same major ore event in the Tinos hydrothermal system.
