Characteristics of ten of the world's metallogenic provinces hosting iron oxide Cu-Au (IOCG)
deposits have been critically assessed, including their geological and tectonothermal …

Australia's nickel sulfide industry has had a fluctuating history since the discovery in 1966 of
massive sulfides at Kambalda in the Eastern Goldfields of Western Australia. Periods of …

Titanite (sphene) has great potential as a petrogenetic indicator and mineral
geochronometer, as it can host high concentrations of a range of trace elements and it …

Most available classifications of uranium deposits are based on the characteristics of the
host rocks or on the morphology of the ore deposits. The aim of the present paper is to …

Integrated U–Pb geochronology and palaeomagnetic studies of the Mundine Well dyke
swarm (MDS) of the Pilbara Craton, Western Australia, are employed to test the hypothesis …

The basement of central Australia includes the Arunta Block and the 1200-1100 Ma
Musgrave Block succeeded by 1075-1000 Ma bimodal volcanic rifts and dolerite dykes. A …

Liberation of iron and potassium by widespread postmetamorphic albitization of country
rocks was one of the likely contributing processes in the formation of both barren and …

The strongly incompatible behaviour of uranium in silicate magmas results in its
concentration in the most felsic melts and a prevalence of granites and rhyolites as primary …

Abstract The Proterozoic Mount Isa terrain records the effects of four periods of intraplate
tectonism. The c. 1870 Ma Barramundi Orogeny was characterized by a massive felsic …
