Abstract
Three deposits in the eastern and southeastern parts of Afghanistan are genetically and spacially associated with ultrabasic massifs which have clear tectonic contacts with the country rocks and are located within ophiolitic sutures. All the deposits are confined to the marginal portions of the massifs, within and near which acid intrusions are absent and chromite bodies are usually present. The Afghan deposits, representing a variety of genetic types, are spatially confined to the ultrabasic belt of Tethys in the Alpine-Himalayan fold belt and are associated with the Alpine epoch of asbestos formation.
