IRON RAlVGE DEPOSITS, SOUTHEASTERN BRITISH COLUMBIA
نویسندگان
چکیده
alteration was ohserved along minor subsidiary faults in the northwest and northeast parts of Iron Range Mountain. The main Iron Range deposit consists of the segment of the ault containing the richest iron mineralization and underlies the northern half of the ridge which makes up Iron Range Mountain. This area extends northward onto the Grassy Mountain sheet (82FB). The area of most substantial mineralization, where the fault zone runs along the northern part of the crest of Iron Range Mountain, was the fows of a detailed study involving 1:5000 mapping, sample collection, and thin

In southeastern British Columbia many inhusive suites lack conclusive radiometric age dates. The purpose of this BSc. project is to study three of the intrusions in the Purcell Mountain Range and provide uranium-lead geochronological results on two of these to refme the igneous magmatic history of the region. The White Creek Batholith (WCB) and the Greenland Creek Stock (GCS) are located approx...

The Yukon-Tanana Terrane of Yukon, Alaska and northern British Columbia consists of poorly understood, lithologically diverse successions of metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks and voluminous midand late Paleozoic granitic metaplutonic bodies (Mortensen and J i l s o n , 1 9 8 5 ; M o r t e n s e n , 1 9 9 2 ) .

متن کاملLate Cretaceous Volcanoplutonic Arcs in Northwestern British Columbia: Implications for Porphyry and Epithermal Deposits
Porphyry Cu and epithermal deposits are spatially and temporally related to specific volcanic and plutonic rocks emplaced during the formation of long-lived magmatic arcs formed along convergent plate boundaries (e.g., Sillitoe, 1972; Sutherland Brown, 1976; Titley, 1982; Sawkins, 1990; Bissig et al., 2003). Recognizing the presence, types of deposits, and age of the mineralized volcanoplutonic...
متن کاملDepositional Setting of Silver-Rich Quartz-Sulphate-Carbonate Deposits of the Upper Kitsault River Area, Northwest British Columbia
The Upper Kitsault River area lies approximately 23 to 30 km north of Alice Arm, in the Skeena Mining Division, British Columbia. Mineral occurrences are of three principal types: copper and gold-rich quartz-chlorite stockwork deposits, silver-rich quartz-sulphate-carbonate deposits; and molybdenum-rich quartz stockwork deposits (Alldrick et al., 1987). The first two types are hosted by lower J...
