In the present paper, we have compiled data on 565 layered and differentiated igneous intrusions globally, documenting their (i) location,(ii) age,(iii) size,(iv) geotectonic setting,(v) …
Magmatic systems play a crucial role in enriching the crust with volatiles and elements that reside primarily within the Earth's mantle, including economically important metals like …
Much of the world's supply of battery metals and platinum group elements (PGE) comes from sulphide ore bodies formed in ancient sub-volcanic magma plumbing systems. Research on …
A common feature of the mineralised chonolith intrusions of the Norilsk-Talnakh camp is the presence of globular disseminated Ni–Cu–Fe sulphide ores, particularly well developed …
Ore forming processes involve the redistribution of heat, mass and momentum by a wide range of processes operating at different time and length scales. The fastest process at any …
Magmatic sulfide deposits are generated by extraordinary accumulations of immiscible sulfide liquids in ultramafic-mafic magmas. While their associated geochemical and …
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 …
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 …
Magmatic sulfide ore deposits are products of natural smelting: concentration of immiscible sulfide liquid ('matte'), enriched in chalcophile elements, derived from silicate magmas …
