Layered intrusions are fossilized natural laboratories that historically have constrained many
fundamental principles of igneous petrology. Layered intrusions are typically stratiform …

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) …

Abstract The Paleoproterozoic Bushveld Complex, including the world's largest layered
intrusion and host to world-class stratiform chromium, platinum group element, and …

The origin of magmas that formed the Bushveld Complex remains highly debated in spite of
many decades of intense research. Previous geochemical–petrological studies have shown …

A 3D geological model of the Archean Esker ultramafic–mafic intrusive complex of the Ring
of Fire intrusive suite of northwestern Ontario (Canada) is presented, providing insight into …

The Mount Ayliff Complex comprises five cognate mafic–ultramafic bodies emplaced along
the southern margin of the Kaapvaal Craton. This study examines the Ingeli and Horseshoe …

At least four spatially overlapping Large Igneous Provinces, each of which generated~ 1 x
106 km3 or more of basaltic magmas over short time intervals (< 5 my), were emplaced onto …

Abstract The Jacurici Complex hosts the largest chromite deposit in Brazil in an up to 8-m-
thick chromitite layer within a tectonically segmented 300-m-thick intrusion. The ore has …

The study of Precambrian dyke swarms, sill provinces and large igneous provinces on the
Kalahari craton in southern Africa has expanded greatly since the pioneering work initiated …

The formation of an immiscible sulfide melt, with associated base, semiprecious, and
precious metals, is an important ore-forming process in mafic-ultramafic systems. These …
