Geology and Mineralization of the Stuhini Creek Area
نویسندگان
چکیده
Regional geologic mapping in 1994 extended previous 150 000-scale mapping of the Tulsequah River mapsheet (104W12; Mihalynuk et a/.. 1994a, b) eastward into the Stuhini Creek map area (104Wl1, Figure 1). Approximately 20% of the Tulsequah River and 45% of the Stuhini Creek map sheets has been previously mapped as Upper Triassic Stuhini Group (Souther, 1971'). More recently, fossil and isotopic age data indicate that most "upper Triassic" rocks within the Tulsequah Rivrtr map area are in fact Palcozoic (Nelson and Payne; 1984; Mihalynuk et 01.. 1994a; Sherlock et a/., 1994), including rocks that host two past-producing volcanogenic massive sulphide deposits, the Big Bull and Tulsequah Chief. A primaq objective of fieldwork in 1994 was to search along strike in 104W11 for correlative Paleozoic strata. in large areas previously

The Damanghor gold mineralization occurrence is located in north of Bardaskan, Khorasan Razavi Province, and Taknar zone.The geology of the area consists of Precambrian green sericite schist and metarhyolite, intruded by diabase. Mineralization in this area is in vein form with N50E stribe and 70NW dip and hosted by schist and metarhyolite with 300 meters length and 2 to 35 meters width. Dissem...

Bijvard prospect area is located in the northern part of Central Iran zone, Sabzevar zone, about 40 km north of Bardaskan. The rock units exposed in the area include Cretaceous volcano-sedimentary rocks (andesite, basalt, graywacke and conglomerate) that syenogranite porphyry unit has intruded into them. Mineralization has structural control, with N35E trending, and has altered the andesitic r...

The sedimentary copper mineralization of the Sorkheh area is located about 20 km northwest of Marand, East-Azarbaidjan Province, northwest Iran. The most important lithologic units in this area include sandstones and red-color shales, with the Late Miocene age, that are intruded by lamprophyric dike. The copper mineralization in the study area occurred as stratiform laminations and disseminatio...
متن کاملGEOLOGY AND U-Pb GEOCHRONOLOGY OF INTRUSIVE ROCKS ASSOCIATED WITH MINERALIZATION IN THE NORTHERN TAHTSA LAKE DISTRICT, WEST-CENTRAL BRITISH COLUMBIA
The Bulkley Suite of intrusions are spatially associated with numerous important mineral occurrences in westcentral British Columbia. Previous K-Ar dating studies indicated that the Bulkley Suite ranges in age from 70 to 84 Ma (Carter, 1981). The purpose of this study is to better constrain the timing of Bulkley Suite magmatism and associated mineralization in the northern Tahtsa Lake District....
