The Upper Jurassic Mantos Blancos copper deposit (500 Mt at 1.0% Cu), located in the Coastal Range of northern Chile, displays two superimposed hydrothermal events. An older phyllic alteration probably related to felsic magmatic–hydrothermal brecciation at ∼155 Ma, and younger (141–142 Ma) potassic, propylitic, and sodic alterations, coeval with dioritic and granodioritic stocks and sills, and ...

[1] The oldest, deepest, and largest basin recognized on the lunar surface is the South Pole-Aitken (SPA) basin. In the time since its formation, several processes have modified the original interior of the basin, including the introduction of foreign material by impact basins during the period of heavy bombardment. These later basins redistributed material ballistically across the lunar surfac...
