Introduction Podiform chromite deposits are small magmatic chromite bodies formed in the lower section of an ophiolite complex. The Khoy ophiolite covers an extensive area in the northwest of Iran along the Iran-Turkey border.

Landsat-8 data for chromite prospecting in the Logar Massif, Afghanistan [PDF]
Chromite is widely distributed in the east and southeast of Afghanistan, especially in Logar Province. Chromite mineralization is podiform-type and is hosted in the stratigraphically lowest ultramafic rocks of the Logar Ophiolite Complex.

The Chemistry of Serpentine Soils Developed Over A Podiform Chromite Deposit, Western Sierra Nevada, USA [PDF]
The Chinese Camp mining district in the western Sierra Nevada of California, USA, contains a serpentinized, ultramafic dunite intrusion with podiform chromite deposits. Serpentine soils have developed over this intrusion, creating a unique ecosystem of endemic vegetation and soils characterized by low Ca/Mg ratios and high Ni and Cr contents.

Genesis of the Sartohay Podiform Chromitite Based on Microinclusions in Chromite [PDF]
Here, we present a petrographic and microanalytical study of microinclusions in chromite from podiform chromitites hosted by the Sartohay ophiolitic mélange in west Junggar, northwestern China, to investigate the parental magma evolution and chromitite genesis.

Genesis and geotectonic setting of podiform chromitites from the Zhob Valley Ophiolite, Pakistan: inferences from chromite composition [PDF]
Zhob valley ophiolite comprises Khanozai, Muslim Bagh, and Zhob chromitite occurrences located in Pakistan. These occurrences occur in massive, disseminated and nodular which exhibit both magmatic and deformational texture. The Muslim Bagh and Khanozai chromitites are classified into high-Cr chromitite (Cr#=0.66–0.85) while Zhob chromitite falls into ...

Textural Evidence for the Chromite‐Oversaturated Character of the Melt Involved in Podiform Chromitite Formation [PDF]
AbstractWell‐preserved oval‐shaped dunite clots occur within the exceptionally fresh massive podiform chromitites from the Coto Block of the Zambales Ophiolite Complex, the Philippines. The dunite/chromitite boundary shows an interlocking texture; olivine inclusions in chromites in the podiform chromitites show the same optical extinction with larger ...
