Origin and significance of aromatic hydrocarbons in giant iron ore deposits of the late Archean Hamersley Basin, Western Australia
Late Archean to earliest Paleoproterozoic shales associated with two giant iron ore deposits in the Hamersley Province, Western Australia, contain traces of solvent extractable saturated and aromatic hydrocarbons. The host rocks belong to the 2.5 billion years (Ga) old Mt McRae Shale and Brockman Iron Formation, Hamersley Group, and were collected in mines near Tom Price and Newman (Mt Whalebac...
متن کاملConditions of riebeckite formation in the iron-formation of the Dales Gorge Member, Hamersley Group, Western Australia
Quantitative evaluation of the stability relations of riebeckite, in the system Na-Fe-MgSi-C-GH at low temperature and pressure, is based upon estimated thermodynamic parameters for riebeckite and on chemical and petrologic data. This evaluation forms the basis for an assessment of the conditions of riebeckite formation in the Dales Gorge Member, Hamersley Group, Western Australia. Computed val...
متن کاملA reconstruction of Archean biological diversity based on molecular fossils from the 2.78 to 2.45 billion-year-old Mount Bruce Supergroup, Hamersley Basin, Western Australia
Bitumens extracted from 2.7 to 2.5 billion-year-old (Ga) shales of the Fortescue and Hamersley Groups in the Pilbara Craton, Western Australia, contain traces of molecular fossils. Based on a combination of molecular characteristics typical of many Precambrian bitumens, their consistently and unusually high thermal maturities, and their widespread distribution throughout the Hamersley Basin, th...

متن کاملIron isotopes constrain biologic and abiologic processes in banded iron formation genesis
The voluminous 2.5 Ga banded iron formations (BIFs) from the Hamersley Basin (Australia) and Transvaal Craton (South Africa) record an extensive period of Fe redox cycling. The major Fe-bearing minerals in the Hamersley–Transvaal BIFs, magnetite and siderite, did not form in Fe isotope equilibrium, but instead reflect distinct formation pathways. The near-zero average dFe values for magnetite r...
