Fe-sulfides occur with lesser quantities of Zn-, Pb-, and Ag-sulfides within anhydrite and calcite cap rocks at the Hockley salt dome near Houston, Texas. Metal zonation patterns for Ag, Cd, Pb, and Zn in the anhydrite cap rock were evaluated to determine the nature and evolution of the metal reservoir. Gulf coast formation waters of different ages and host formations were examined as source fluids for cap-rock mineralization.
