Abstract

The contents of major and rare elements in 10 samples of altered (mainly zeolitized) pyroclastic rocks from the Eastern Rhodopes are investigated. The samples are selected to represent different secondary mineral associations specific to the area. The obtained results indicate that the diversity in secondary mineral associations has relatively little influence on the trace element geochemistry of zeolitized pyroclastic rocks in the Eastern Rhodopes. Regarding their trace and rare earth element composition, these rocks show the main characteristics seen in the acid lavas in the area.
