The correct answer that would best complete the given statement above is the third option: hydrothermal fluids. Mineralized veins containing valuable metals were deposited by hydrothermal fluids. Veins are sheetlike body of crystallized minerals inside a rock. These minerals were formed through precipitation due to mineral constituents that were carried by an aqueous solution.
