PGE mineralization has been identified in various rock types and at various stratigraphic levels in layered intrusions of any age, size and magmatic lineage, but the most important …
Abstract The Rustenburg Layered Suite (RLS) of the Bushveld Complex (BC) represents Earth's oldest large igneous province (> 370 000 km 3), and contains the world's largest …
Platinum-group element (PGE) deposits in the Bushveld Complex and other layered intrusions form when large, incompletely solidified magma chambers undergo central …
The mafic rocks of the Bushveld Complex, South Africa, were emplaced into a stable cratonic shield some 2.06 by ago, and have remained remarkably well preserved from …
Mapping closely to how ore deposit geology is now taught, this textbook systematically describes and illustrates the major ore deposit types, linking this to their settings in the crust …
Abstract Magmatic Fe-Ni-Cu±platinum-group element (PGE) sulfide deposits form when mantle-derived mafic and ultramafic magmas become saturated in sulfide and segregate …

A combined set of U–Pb and Lu–Hf in sit u laser ablation ICP-(MC)-MS zircon analyses were obtained from orthogneisses and granitoids in the Central Zone of the Limpopo Belt, which …
Abstract The Bushveld Complex contains large ore deposits of platinum-group elements (PGE), V, and Cr. Understanding how these deposits formed is in part dependent on …
