Miniera San Pietro (Miniera di Monte Tamara), Area mineraria di Monte Tamara, Nuxis, Provincia del Sud Sardegna, Sardegna, Italia
The San Pietro mine, situated NW of Monte Tamara, was active from the late 19th century until the second half of the 20th century and exploited ZnโPbโCuโAs ores.
It consisted of five underground mining levels through a vertical depth of ~70 m. The mine exploited a 0.5โ5 m thick and irregular, steeply dipping band of dark green skarn located between the meta-sandstones (Nebida Formation) and greyish-black marbles (Gonnesa Formation) with disseminated ZnโPbโCu sulphides and narrow subvertical veins. Well-exposed mineralised skarn outcrops are limited to an open excavation and a stope close to a shaft at the top of the mine (level 377).
The ore is a 5 m thick, NWโSE striking and steeply SW-dipping band, consisting of four main zones. From the meta-sandstones to the marbles:
- the first zone (1) is a 50 cm thick garnetโclinopyroxeneโwollastonite skarn band with magnetite, chalcopyrite, and scheelite;
- followed by (2) a zone of 30 cm thick magnetite and sphalerite band in a garnet and amphibole gangue;
- (3) the magnetite band grades towards an arsenopyriteโsphaleriteโchalcopyriteโgalena zone;
- (4) towards the contact with the marbles, a 30 cm thick band of massive magnetite hosts subordinate chalcopyrite and mm-scale dispersed crystals of scheelite (observable under short-wave UV light) in an amphibole gangue.
Secondary FeโCuโZnโAs minerals are common and renowned among mineralogists and mineral collectors.
