“If the ore body shows only one stage⟳ of economically important mineralization yet contains minerals which are typical of, for example, both hypothermal and mesothermal conditions, it is classified under both headings.”
“Although FW- and SW-acclimated milkfish have⟳ different levels of tolerance for hypothermal stress⟳, to date⟳, the molecular physiological basis of this difference has not been elucidated.”
“In view⟳ of the important work⟳ of R. E. Gibson on the elevation of the inversion temperature of quartz with increased pressure, and the discovery by V.B. Meen of high-quartz in certain of the Canadian hypothermal veins, are we still to accept⟳ Lindgren's estimate⟳ of the temperature ranges of deposition of the various classes of deposits commonly called hydrothermal without making necessary adjustments dependent upon the depth at which mineralization took place⟳?”
