Constrained Magnetic Modelling of the Wallaby Gold Deposit, Western Australia

Hydrodynamic Modelling of Coral Reefs:Ningaloo Reef-Western Australia

As with all coral reef systems, the ecology of Ningaloo Reef is closely linked to water circulation which transport and disperse key material such as nutrients and larvae. Circulation on coral reefs may be driven by a number of forcing mechanisms including waves, tides, wind, and buoyancy effects. Surface waves interacting with reefs have long been known to dominate the currents on many coral r...

MODELLING THE As-Au ASSOCIATION IN HYDROTHERMAL GOLD MINERALIZATION: EXAMPLE OF ZARSHURAN DEPOSIT, NW IRAN

Structural Controls on gold mineralization on the margin of the Yilgarn craton, Albany–Fraser orogen: The Tropicana Deposit, Western Australia

25 26 The Tropicana gold deposit is located adjacent to the margin of the Yilgarn craton in 27 the Albany–Fraser orogen, Western Australia. The deposit is hosted in granulite facies 28 quartzo-feldspathic gneisses of the Archean Tropicana Gneiss. Ore bodies comprise 29 biotite-pyrite alteration concentrated in shear zones that formed during NE-SW 30 shortening in the late Archean, and clearly p...

Ore mineralogy and fluid inclusions constraints on genesis of the Muteh gold deposit (western Iran)

The Muteh gold deposit (NE of Golpaygan) in the central part of intrusive-metamorphic belt of Sanandaj-Sirjan zone comprises NW-SE trending gold-quartz vein occurred in metamorphic complex. Gold mineralization is associated with quartz veins that formed during regional deformation across the mylonitic zones in metamorphic rocks of predominantly meta-volcanic, gneiss and schist. The sulfidation ...

Modelling the giant, Zn-Pb-Ag Century deposit, Queensland, Australia

This paper presents a combination of geometric reconstructions of the Century Zn–Pb–Ag deposit, and finite-difference modelling of coupled deformation and fluid flow. Our intention is to demonstrate that these computer-based applications represent a new approach in testing ore genesis models. We use a ‘‘visiometric’’ approach, utilising GoCad 3D structural and property modelling. Computer visua...
