Abstract
ABSTRACT The state of Oaxaca in southern Mexico includes copious metallic deposits of distinct types that were formed in several tectonothermal events since the Proterozoic. This work integrates a large database of mineral occurrences and deposits in Oaxaca. The 1:850,000 scale metallogenetic map depicts the location of deposits, mining regions, and mining districts on a lithological base, along with a summarized metallogenic history of the state and the distribution of the tectonostratigraphic terranes. We briefly describe the most relevant features of each mineralized area and the characteristics of the metallogenic epochs of Oaxaca. All the geolocation information was organized in GIS format.
