Content SummaryConsiderable iron ore occurrences are located in Crete and particularly in the western part of the island. In this paper a comparative study, based on mineralogical analysis results and ore-microscopy examination of iron ore samples originated from different places of western Crete, was carried out. The examined samples come from Skines and Drakona area (prefecture of Chania), as well as, from Arolithi and Ano Valsamonero area (prefecture of Rethymno). The iron ore occurrences are placed within the Phyllite-Quartzite-Series (PQS), a high pressure/low temperature metamorphic subunit of the Phyllite-Nappe of Crete. The Phyllite-Nappe is a structural unit of the External Hellenides lying in between the Plattenkalk-Series underneath and the Tripolitza-Series above. The PQS consists mainly of phyllites and quartzites and secondarily of metaconglomerates, marbles, calcareous phyllites and metabasalts en
