Abstract

KuhSefid Flourite deposit is located about 110 km south east of Mashhad. Geological units of the region related to Kashafroud Formation with Jurassic age. Most of fluorite mineralization can be seen along the faults with direction of north west-south east. Fluorite veins are differente in diameter of 2 to 2.5 m and length of 50 m. Hydrothermal solutions with maximum and minimum temperatures of 181⁰C and 125⁰C with the average temperature of 152⁰C in protraction of faults, cracks and fragments, have created mineral substance. Geological evidences, petrography, mineralization and homogeneous temperature of fluids inclusion, are the evidences that concluded the Fluorite mineralization as Epithermal.
