Abstract

This study investigates the field-relations, petrographical, and geochemical characteristics of the quartz veins, hosted within the Cretaceous-Paleogene Serginil phyllite group, occurring in the Mlay Lexaugira area — Penjween Town, Kurdistan Region northeast of Iraq. The aim is to present a genetic interpretation of the Serginil quartz veins. The studied quartz veins exhibit distinctly uniform mineral assemblages, consisting mainly of quartz, and usually having macroscopic deformation features, including folding and boudinage.
