Lode–gold mineralization in the Tanami region, northern Australia

Lode-gold mineralization in convergent wrench structures: Examples from South Eastern Desert, Egypt

“…The mineralized shear zones in the study area are part of the high-angle convergent wrench structure, namely Wadi Kharit-Wadi Hodein zone (e.g., Abdeen et al, 2008;de Wall et al, 2001;Greiling et al, 1994;Zoheir, 2011). Spatial association of the investigated auriferous shear zones and regional convergent structures is typical for the orogenic, lodegold setting (e.g., Goldfarb et al, 2001;Huston et al, 2007).…”

“…Bagas et al, 2009;Huston et al, 2007;Wygralak et al, 2004;Fig. 1a and b), which highlights the significant potential for the discovery of economically important mineral occurrences in this gold province.…”

Biogeochemical sampling for mineral exploration in arid terrains: Tanami Gold Province, Australia

“…2d, Gibbons and Webb, 1997;Wygralak and Mernagh, 2001;Huston et al, 2007). Ore minerals include arsenopyrite with traces of chalcopyrite, sphalerite and pyrrhotite.…”

“…Beardsmore, 2005, written comm.). This is sometimes referred to as the Bald Hill sequence (the oldest rocks in the Tanami), which is in contact with the Killi Killi Formation Huston et al, 2007).…”
