Much of the value of magmatic Ni-Cu-PGE sulfide orebodies is contained within massive or
semi-massive ores that show a wide variety of textural relationships to included or adjacent …

A large proportion of ores in magmatic sulfide deposits consist of mixtures of cumulus
silicate minerals, sulfide liquid, and silicate melt, with characteristic textural relationships that …

Experimental studies on binary, ternary and quaternary Cu–Fe–Ni–S systems are
fundamental for the investigation of magmatic sulfide deposits, the main source of Ni, Co …

The metal concentrations of sulfide liquids depend upon the mass of silicate magma that
they are able to process for metals. Some high-grade magmatic Ni-Cu (±PGE) deposits and …

Large, layered intrusions throughout the world are characterized by a remarkable paucity in
economically important magmatic Ni–Cu sulfide deposits. The Sudbury intrusion in Canada …

Abstract Magmatic Ni-Cu sulfide deposits form as the result of segregation and
concentration of droplets of liquid sulfide from mafic or ultramafic magma, and the …

Abstract Magmatic Ni-Cu sulfide ores at Voisey's Bay contain complex assemblages of
extremely heterogeneous rocks. These range from polymict breccias, with rock fragments in …

This chapter focuses on S in porphyry-type ore deposits, layered-mafic-intrusion-hosted ore
bodies, and magmatic sulfide deposits. Porphyry-type ore deposits, eg, Bingham Canyon …

Pentlandite is the dominant Ni-hosting ore mineral in most magmatic sulfide deposits and
has conventionally been interpreted as being entirely generated by solid-state exsolution …

Typical magmatic sulfides are dominated by pyrrhotite and pentlandite with minor
chalcopyrite, and the bulk atomic Cu/Fe ratio of these sulfides is typically less than unity …
