Abstract
Summary: In the Torrington district of New South Wales the cassiterite occurs almost entirely in hydrothermal veins, with galena, blende, quartz, and chlorite; sometimes it replaces crinoid stems and gastropods. In the Madman vein, however, the cassiterite is associated with adularia, both minerals encrusting quartz. These observations suggest that the tin came in as alkali stannate solutions.Keywords
