Abstract
Tourmaline-supergroup minerals are found in a large variety of
igneous, metamorphic, hydrothermal and sedimentary rocks.
Eastern border of the Bohemian Massif (contact of the
Moldanubian Zone, Svratka Unit, and the Moravo-Silesian Zone of
the Brunovistulian terrane) has extremely variable geology with
tourmaline occurrences in granites, marbles, mica schists
(tourmalinites), orthogneisses (tin-bearing metagranites),
skarns, pegmatites, granulites, migmatites, and hydrothermal
veins. This book provides an introduction to the geological
evolution of the area and tourmaline occurrences; it is aimed
as a field-trip guidebook for specialists in tourmaline
petrology and mineralogy.
