The Mineral Evolution database is currently under development.
The goal of this page is to present localities at which the mineral is found, and estimates of the oldest possible geologic age of the minerals at these localities.
This mineral is using an age reported as an element mineralization period.
O
This mineral is using an age calculated from all data at the locality.
R
The age displayed for this mineral originates from a different, non-child locality.
P
The age displayed for this mineral is the range of ages for this mineral at all of this locality's children.
This mineral's age has not yet been recorded.
This Mineral list contains entries from this locality, including sub-localities. Minerals in bold are reported by mindat.org as occurring directly at this locality, and do not occur at any children (sublocalities) of this locality.Elements at this locality, including sub-localities: AlAsBBaCCaClCuFFeHKMgNaOPPbSSiTiZnZrElements from minerals reported directly at this locality: Structural Groups for minerals in this locality:
The Val Daone Conglomerate is a mid-Permian unit that runs through much of the south-central Alpine region. Some localities possess trace amounts of U and Cu.
Age is interpreted by the author as being linked to the "Mid Permian Event" which is a surge of tectonic activity that represents the final act of the Hercyanian/Variscan cycle
Age of the Val Daone Conglomerate is expressed as Mid to Upper Permian, late to post Kazanian and possibly up into the lower Tatarian. The age is derived from palynological evidence as well as other paleontological sources compiled and given an estimated age. See fig. 11
Age of the Treviogo is described as lower to middle Permian, mostly Kungarian. The age is derived from palynological evidence as well as other paleontological sources compiled and given an estimated age. See fig. 11
Age of the Collio Formation is described as lower Permian, mostly Artinskian. The numbers do not agree with the GSA's Arinskian age as the paper uses a different Time Scale. The age is derived from palynological evidence as well as other paleontological sources compiled and given an estimated age. See fig. 11
Age of the Verrucano formation is described as Upper Permian and Upper Tatarian. The age is derived from palynological evidence as well as other paleontological sources compiled and given an estimated age. See fig. 11
