Abstract
FeS, MnS and CdS contents of sphalerites from fourteen Korean hydrothermal deposits, are measured by an electron probe microanalyzer. The results are summarized in Table 2. Relatively MnS-rich sphalerites are found in the deposits where sphalerites are enriched in FeS molecule. Sphalerites from Zn-Pb deposits are characterized by high MnS and low CdS contents. Sphalerites from W deposits are high in CdS contents but those from Cu and/or Fe deposits are low in MnS and CdS contents.
