Whole rock and single mineral geochemical data of basalt rhyolite from massive sulfide deposits in hamamid area, Eastern desert of Egypt- A Big Earth Data Platform for Three Poles

This data is the data of major, trace and rare earth elements, zircon U-Pb age and pyroxene geochemistry of basalt rhyolite whole rock of massive sulfide deposit in hamamid area, Eastern desert of Egypt. The major element data of the whole rock were obtained by XRF analysis, the trace and rare earth element data were obtained by ICP-MS analysis, the zircon U-Pb dating data were obtained by LA-ICP-MS analysis, and the major element composition of pyroxene was obtained by electron microprobe analysis. The above data have been published in high-level SCI journals, and the data are true and reliable. Through the data obtained, the magmatic evolution process can be described, so as to better restrict their relationship with sulfide deposit mineralization.

File naming and required software

The geochemical data are stored in Excel format, and the sample name is "YY DD", where YY represents Egypt and DD is the sample ordinal number
