Grosses Chalttal, Chalttalgebiet, Mürtschenalp, Glarus Nord, Kanton Glarus, Schweiz


The Grosses Chalttal deposit, like all the mines and small deposits that make up the Mürtschenalp district, is located in the Helvetic nappes of eastern Switzerland, within the Permian Verrucano formation, which is up to 1000 m thick and consists of layered volcanic rocks, sandstones and conglomerates. During Oligocene–Miocene times, the Verrucano was pushed northwards at least 40 km along the famous Glarus thrust above younger Cretaceous carbonates and Tertiary flysch sediments. At Grosses Chalttal, the rock appears in its coarse fanglomeratic sernifite facies, as a pale-grey to greenish breccia.

The Grosses Chalttal Cu and partly U mineralization has a sedimentary origin with at least two phases of later remobilization. The primary ore consists mainly, in order of abundance, of tennantite-(Cu), pyrite, bornite, chalcopyrite, galena, uraninite, and brannerite in a quartz and minor baryte matrix. As could be shown by electron microprobe and powder diffraction analysis in the context of this study, primary tennantite-(Cu) is consistently associated with a fine-grained admixture of spionkopite and yarrowite with (Cu + Ag + Hg)S = 1.12 to 1.40 (Ag ∼ 1.0 at. %; Hg ∼ 0.3 at. %), which is of secondary (cementation) origin. Molybdenite, stromeyerite and wittichenite are also mentioned as very minor constituents of the primary ore.
