Abstract:For decades, there has been debate surrounding the transport of dense metal-rich sulfide liquid in mafic magmas. This topic is crucial to understanding the genesis of valuable resources of nickel, copper, and platinum-group elements, which are essential for a sustainable, emission-free energy future. Recent studies of mineralized mafic magmas suggested that gas bubbles adhere to sulfide globules, reducing their density and favoring upward transport. While this hypothesis may explain sulfide mobility in near-su… Show more
