Landsat-8 data for chromite prospecting in the Logar Massif, Afghanistan [PDF]
Heliyon, 2018 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.

Origin of chromite nodules in podiform chromitite from the Kızıldağ ophiolite, southern Turkey
Ore Geology Reviews, 2021 Abstract Chromite nodule is unique in podiform chromitite of ophiolitic suites and there is no agreement on its petrogenesis. The nodular chromitites of the Kizildag ophiolite in southern Turkey contain typical chromite nodules, and here their geochemical compositions and crystallographic orientations have been analyzed to study the formation of ...

Genesis of the Sartohay Podiform Chromitite Based on Microinclusions in Chromite
Minerals (Basel, Switzerland)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.
