• Description: Occurrences of magnetite-rich rocks situated in Sobotín Massif or in the adjacent gneisses of the Desná Group in the Silesicum were investigated. Detailed petrographic studies supported by CL-microscopy, whole rock geochemical and mineral (amphibole, biotite, garnet, chlorite, magnetite, ilmenite, carbonate, feldspar and apatite)analyses were evaluated.
