Pyrite	FeS₂	56.36%	Epidote (56.37 %)

Key: Mineral matches key element mineralogy of deposit Key element(s) in mineral not listed for deposit (-20% score)

Predicting paragenetic modes of deposit

Green indicates almost certain match based on minerals unique to a certain deposit type. Yellow indicates a possibly poor match, but should not be entirely discounted. Scores > 100 indicate strong confidence.

Paragenetic Mode	Score
40 : Regional metamorphism (greenschist, amphibolite, granulite facies)	50
31 : Thermally altered carbonate, phosphate, and iron formations	50
43 : Shear-induced minerals (including mylonite/slickensides)	48
39 : High-𝑃 metamorphism (blueschist, eclogite, ultrahigh 𝑃 facies)	44
22 : Hydration and low-𝑇 subsurface aqueous alteration (see also #23)	44
16 : Low-𝑇 aqueous alteration of Hadean subaerial lithologies (see also #23)	44
35 : Ultra-alkali and agpaitic igneous rocks	9
34 : Complex granite pegmatites	9
26 : Hadean detrital minerals	9
24 : Authigenic minerals in terrestrial sediments (see also #17)	9
