Description Magnetite ores of the Desná Group in Silesicum represent metamorphosed and silicified banded iron ores, primarily of magmatic origin, similar to the "Itakpe" ore type in Nigeria. Mn-rich bands consisting mainly of spessartite dominated rocks are also present in the heterogeneous ores. They are suggested to be identical to the gondite - silicate facies of iron formation (type Algoma).
