The 13 pages that link to Skarn, each with the reason it gives.

• MetamorphismBroader topic: Skarns illustrate how fluid-mediated reactions can substantially change rock composition.

• Hydrothermal alterationBroader topic: It is a distinctive product of fluid-driven alteration near many intrusions.

• Contact metamorphismBroader topic: It records fluid-assisted reactions where intrusions meet carbonate host rocks.

• MetasomatismBroader topic: Skarns are prominent products of fluid-driven chemical exchange at intrusive contacts.

• Hydrothermal mineral depositBroader topic: Its contact zones can host substantial copper, iron, tungsten, and other ores.

• DiopsideRelated: Diopside is a common calc-silicate mineral in many skarns.

• ScheeliteBroader topic: Many scheelite deposits form in tungsten-rich skarns created by fluid-rock reactions.

• ArsenopyriteRelated: Arsenopyrite occurs in some skarns alongside other hydrothermal ore minerals.

• HornfelsCompared with: Skarn records fluid-driven metasomatism, whereas hornfels chiefly records thermal alteration.

• EpidoteBroader topic: Epidote occurs in some skarns as a product of fluid-mediated reactions.

• ForsteriteRelated: Forsterite can form in magnesium-rich skarns through high-temperature reactions.

• HedenbergiteRelated: Hedenbergite commonly occurs in iron-rich skarns formed by reactions between fluids and carbonate rocks.

• WollastoniteRelated: Wollastonite commonly occurs in skarns formed where silicate-rich fluids reach limestone.
