Operation type: | Unknown |
Deposit type: | Stratiform |
Production size: | Production occurred |
Development status: | Producer |
ore: | Chalcopyrite, Pentlandite, Pyrite, Pyrrhotite |
gangue: | Gold, Magnetite, Olivine, Pyroxene, Sericite, Serpentine, Spinel, Talc, Zoisite |
alteration: | Most Intense In Clinopyroxene-Rich Rocks. Alteration Is Deuteric, But Also A Result Of Fluids Mobilized During Eastern Gabbro And/Or Granitic Intrusion. Finally Metamorphosed To Amphibolite-Greenschist Facies. |
conc_proc: | Pgm Dissolved In Sulfide Liquid; Upon Cooling, They Precipitated Out As Monosulfide Solid Solution (Mms). Further Cooling Causes Sulfide Assemblage To Exsolve From Mms. |
