Kupfer, das als Sulfid vorkommt, entstand, als am Tethysboden Meerwasser in die vorhandenen Gesteinsklüfte eindrang und die im Nebengestein vorkommenden Metalle löste. Diese stiegen dann als Kupfer-, Eisen- und Zinksulfide auf. Die untermeerisch geförderten Basalte erstarrten wulst- und kissenartig und bilden die sogenannte Kissenlava (Pillolaven). |
