Sulphide ores hosted in deeper parts of ophiolite complexes may be related to either primary magmatic processes or links to hydrothermal alteration and metal remobilization into hydrothermal systems. The Pindos ophiolite complex was selected for the present study because it hosts both Cyprus-type sulphides (Kondro Hill) and Fe–Cu–Co–Zn sulphides associated with magnetite (Perivoli-Tsoumes) within gabbro, close to its tectonic contact with serpentinized harzburgite, and thus offers the opportunity to delineate constraints controlling their origin. Massive Cyprus-type sulphides characterized by relatively high Zn, Se, Au, Mo, Hg, and Sb content are composed of pyrite, chalcopyrite, bornite, and in lesser amounts covellite, siegenite, sphalerite, selenide-clausthalite, telluride-melonite, and occasionally tennantite–tetrahedrite. Massive Fe–Cu–Co–Zn-type sulphides associated with magnetite occur in a matrix of calcite and an unknown (Fe,Mg) silicate, resembling Mg–hisingerite within a deformed/metamorphosed ophiolite zone. The texture and mineralogical characteristics of this sulphide-magnetite ore suggest formation during a multistage evolution of the ophiolite complex. Sulphides (pyrrhotite, chalcopyrite, bornite, and sphalerite) associated with magnetite, at deeper parts of the Pindos (Tsoumes), exhibit relatively high Cu/(Cu + Ni) and Pt/(Pt + Pd), and low Ni/Co ratios, suggesting either no magmatic origin or a complete transformation of a preexisting magmatic assemblages. Differences recorded in the geochemical characteristics, such as higher Zn, Se, Mo, Au, Ag, Hg, and Sb and lower Ni contents in the Pindos compared to the Othrys sulphides, may reflect inheritance of a primary magmatic signature.
