I have recently visited a mineral occurrence with the following general characteristics:
Pervasive argillic alteration in a subvolcanic intermediate rock, sulfide veinlets (partly oxidized), sulfide-bearing quartz veins, mineralized breccia, anomalies (or rather high amounts) of copper and gold, etc.
As a whole, this occurrence seems to demonstrate the general features of an epithermal and /or a porphyry type of mineralization.
An interesting feature to me was the presence of sets of parallel sulfide veinlets which in some cases, have been crosscut by other sets of parallel sulfide veinlets.
I wonder, if this type of texture could be considered stockwork? Please see the attached pictures.
I ask this, because some colleagues believe these are not stockwork because they are not randomly distributed in the rock.
I appreciate any comment or experience in this regard.
