Iron ore occurrences are situated on the south-eastern slopes of the Medvednica Mountain. They occur as discontinous, decameters long and 2-3.5 m thick bedded, poorly mineralized (15-35 % Fe) lenses. A narrow, 6 km long, ore zone strikes NE-SW from Tisova Peć to Pustodol-Adolfovac. It is spatially and genetically bounded to the basic volcanogenic-sedimentary series (SEDEX-type), metamorphosed in greenschists during Cretaceous under P 3-3.5 kbar and T 350-400°C. The main minerals of the paragenesis are: quartz, chlorite, hematite, magnetite, stilpnomelane, martite. Similar types of Neo-Proterozoic and Early Paleozoic iron deposits were found in eastern Bosnia - western Serbia, western Macedonia and in the Serbo-Macedonian Mass. In the Triass...
