• Description: The Cínovec rare-metal granite in the eastern segment of the Krušné Hory/Erzgebirge (Czech Republic/Germany)formed in the final stage of the magmatic evolution of the late Variscan volcano-plutonic system known as the Teplice caldera. The granite is slightly peraluminous; enriched in F, Li, Rb, Cs, Nb, Ta, Sn, W, Sc and U; and poor in P, Mg, Ti, Sr and B.
