Calcic-iron skarns are one of the characteristic part of the regional metamorphic complexes of the Bohemian Massif. Their mineral assemblages, structures and significant enrichment of Ca, Al and Fe were previously interpreted to be primary (exhalation sediment) or secondary (metasomatic carbonates). In this project, which consists of three sub-studies will focus on the geochemical composition of skarn as the main arguments for the discussion of their origin. Malešov deposit belongs to the typical calcic-iron skarns whose mineral assemblages are not very different from similar skarns associations in the Bohemian massif. It consists of lenticular body that is stored in gneiss and migmatites of the Kutná Hora crystalline complex. On the deposit prevails garnet-pyroxen skarn, less abundantly represented garnet and magnetite skarns and skarns replacement by amphibole or epidote. Fine-grained garnet skarns are formed by isotropic dark red garnet (Adr78-88Prp0-0.3), while in massive garnet rocks garnet grains form the core (Adr13-38Prp2.5), which envelop newly formed garnet (Adr28-66Prp1.6). In association with them is often pyroxene (Hd60-90) which can be replaced by hastingsite amphibole composition. Other minerals present are magnetite, Fe-epidote, calcite and albite. Magnetite and pyroxene skarns are...
