The main copper ore at the New-Gate prison mine is stratigraphically lower and both texturally and mineralogically distinct from the disseminated mineralization. It is also significantly higher grade. Copper averages 2.5 to 10% and silver up to 10 ounces per ton. Chalcocite rather than bornite or chalcopyrite is the principal ore mineral.

the most common interpretations are that: (1) the fluid originated below mineralized supracrustal rocks in the continental crust via metamorphic devolatilization (e.g., phillips and powell, 2009 ); or (2) from either devolatilization of the subducted slab, with overlying oceanic sediments, or the lithosphere below (e.g. goldfarb and santosh, .

Pyrite (iron disulfide), known popularly as fool's gold, is a common mineral in the Piedmont and occurs in metamorphic, igneous, and sedimentary rocks. Pyrite deposits in the Hillabee Greenstone geologic formation in the vicinity of Pyriton, Clay County, were first mined in the 1850s by mining companies to produce sulphur acid and elemental sulfur.

The deposit has an inferred and indicated resource of 120,000 ounces of gold in the JORC category. Detrital zircon grains from the host sandstones returned a maximum depositional age ranging from Early Carboniferous to Early Permian (333.5 ± 2.5 Ma-261.5 ± 4.9 Ma) and those of the rhyolite indicated a crystallization age of 218.8 ± 1.7 Ma.

This disintegration frees gold from rock. Gold has a high specific gravity, about seven times that of quartz. The specific gravity ratio increases to more than eleven to one under water. Gold, therefore, works toward the bottom of a detrital deposit, and concentrate near the bedrock or impervious strata of clay and caliche. Such

To find the volume, fill the graduated cylinder up with water. On scratch paper, record how much water is in the cylinder. Then gently place your rock into the cylinder. Now record how much "stuff" is in the cylinder. Take the larger amount and subtract the smaller amount from it. This will give you the volume of your specimen.

Zircon is a common accessory mineral in clastic sediments, which retains U-Pb isotopic signatures during erosion, recycling, and transport; differences in zircon age populations in sediments are linked to the nature and age of source terranes (Ji et al. 2019; Joy et al. 2019; Liu et al. 2019; Chaudhuri et al. 2020).Hence, detrital zircon U-Pb age geochronology is reliable to infer ...
