Petrography of the Suflide Ore Zones in the Lynne Zn-Cu-Pb Deposit, Oneida Co., Wisconsin
(2021-04)
This study examines the sulfide mineralization of three of the ore zones within in the Lynne Zn-Cu-Pb deposit to determine how the mineralizing hydrothermal system formed and evolved over time. These sulfide mineral ores ...
U-Pb Geochronology of Felsic Plutons in Neoarchean Sturgeon Lake Greenstone Belt, Ontario, Canada
(2021-04)
The emplacement of granitoid plutons in Archean granite-greenstone belt terranes can provide a more complete magmatic and deformational history than the volcanic and sedimentary rocks. Granitoid plutons in greenstone belts ...
Characterizing Felsic Volcanic Rocks of the Lynne Zn-Cu-Pb Deposit, Oneida Co. Wisconsin
(2021-04)
The primary objective of this research was to describe the petrographic and geochemical characteristics of least-altered felsic volcaniclastic and coherent volcanic rocks that host Zn-Pb-Cu massive sulfides in the Lynne ...
Petrogenesis of Archean (2.7 Ga) Mafic Volcanic Assemblages Near Ely, MN
(2019-05)
The Vermilion District in northeastern Minnesota contains one of the classic Neoarchean
Archean granite-greenstone belt terranes in the United States that formed between 2722 Ma to
~2661 Ma. Crustal development during ...
Petrographic Analysis of the Flambeau Sulfide Ore Body
(2017-03-02)
This project is designed to examine the mineralogy, texture, and composition of the ore body and to determine the base and precious metal phases that are present in the primary ore zone.
Potential for Komatiite-Hosted Nickel-Copper Mineralization in the Eastern Part of the Shebandowan Greenstone Belt, Ontario, Canada
(2018-01-02)
Our research focuses on geochemical and textural evidence of interactions between Archean komatiites and silicic sedimentary rocks near Thunder Bay, Ontario, and exploring the potential for Nickel-Copper-Platinum Group ...
Geochemistry and petrography of the volcanic strata hosting the Flambeau Cu-Zn-Au Deposit in Rusk County, WI : A Re-Examination of Wisconsin's Only Past-Producing Volcanogenic Massive Sulfide Mine
(2017-02-16)
This project aims to understand the stratigraphy, geochemistry, petrography, and alteration of the poorly understood Cu-Zn-Au Flambeau volcanogenic massive sulfide deposit. The Flambeau deposit is hosted by the Wisconsin ...
Metamorphic Petrography and Geochemistry of a Garnetiferous Gneiss in the Tobacco Root Mountains, Southwestern Montana
(2018-05)
Both our sample and the Australian garnet gneiss are made primarily of banded iron/manganese garnets, quartz, with lesser magnetite, and trace monzite, ilmenite, grunerite, and biotite. Our sample, the Australian gneiss, ...
Komatiite-Hosted Nickel-Copper Mineralization Potential in the Eastern Shebandowan Greenstone Belt, Ontario, Canada
(2018-05)
Our research focuses on geochemical and textural evidence of interactions between Archean komatiites and silicic sedimentary rocks near Thunder Bay, Ontario, and exploring the potential for Nickel-Copper-Platinum Group ...
