A first paleomagnetic investigation aimed at constraining the age of the non-sulfide Zn-Pb ore deposits in the, Iglesiente district (SW Sardinia, Italy) was carried out. In these ores, the oxidation of primary sulfides, hosted, in Cambrian carbonate rocks, was related to several paleoweathering episodes spanning from the Mesozoic on-, ward.

Peacock ore, or Chalcopyrite, pronounced kal-co-pie-right (kal as in "calendar", "co" as in coat), is a copper iron sulfide mineral that crystallizes in the tetragonal system. The name "Chalcopyrite" is derived from the Greek words chalkos, "copper" and pyrites, "strike fire". It is normally brass yellow but may have a purplish blue tarnish.
