4D Evolution of Replacement-Type VHMS Ore Systems in the Yilgarn Craton, Western Australia

4D evolutionary models of ore deposits can be generated by combining multiple geological techniques, including geochronology and isotopic geochemistry, constraining all geological processes within a mineral system. This thesis applies this method to two replacement-type volcanic hosted massive sulph...

description 4D evolutionary models of ore deposits can be generated by combining multiple geological techniques, including geochronology and isotopic geochemistry, constraining all geological processes within a mineral system. This thesis applies this method to two replacement-type volcanic hosted massive sulphide deposits in the Yilgarn Craton, demonstrating the syn-volcanic nature of the Nimbus deposit, the relationship between the Teutonic Bore camp and the Penzance granite, and proposing tracking of seawater paleo-chemistry for exploration of sedimentary sequences.
