Hydrothermal Alteration and Exploration Vectors at the Island Gold Deposit, Michipicoten greenstone belt, Wawa, Ontario
(University of Waterloo, 2019-05-01)The Island Gold deposit is a high-grade orogenic gold deposit located in the Goudreau Lake Deformation Zone (GLDZ), within the Michipicoten greenstone belt. This belt is situated within the larger Wawa-Abitibi terrane which ... -
Integration of Geochemical and Isotopic Analyses of Fracture Minerals and Fluids to Assess the Deep Geological Stability at Chalk River Laboratories, Chalk River, Canada
(University of Waterloo, 2019-09-30)The crystalline bedrock underlying the Chalk River Laboratories (CRL) at Canadian Nuclear Laboratories (CNL) provides a valuable analogue for potential nuclear waste storage sites. As the main pathways for fluid flow in ... -
LASS-ICP-MS collection of trace element and 87Sr/86Sr isotope data using a novel uneven distribution of sample material for otolith microchemistry
(University of Waterloo, 2022-01-26)Understanding the behaviour and movement of fish populations is crucial to developing plans to properly manage fisheries, and to predict effects of ongoing environmental change. In northern regions, physically tracking ... -
Metamorphic History of the Mougooderra Formation, Yilgarn Craton, Western Australia
(University of Waterloo, 2018-12-05)Sedimentary sequences are common in granite-greenstone belts of Archean terranes. In the Yilgarn Craton of Western Australia, the Mougooderra Formation is an extensive sedimentary sequence that preserves low-variance ... -
Petrogenesis of Archean granitoids: Insights from inverse and forward modelling
(University of Waterloo, 2022-06-24)Archean granitoids are the earliest representation of continental crust on Earth. The Archean geological record is dominated by rocks of the tonalite–trondhjemite–granodiorite (TTG) suite, which are thought to have formed ... -
The Petrogenesis of Pseudocarbonatites in Bancroft Region, Southwestern Grenville Province
(University of Waterloo, 2022-02-15)Carbonatites are rare igneous rocks that form from fractionation of carbonate-rich, silica undersaturated magma. The petrogenesis of pseudocarbonatites (rocks that are similar to carbonatites, but without a clear mantle ... -
Petrogenesis of the Bissett Creek flake graphite deposit: Implications for regional graphite mineralization models in the Grenville Province, Ontario
(University of Waterloo, 2018-07-16)Graphite is a critical component of green and renewable energy technologies. In Ontario, graphite deposits are scattered throughout the pre-Grenvillian Laurentian Margin and the Composite Arc Belt of the Grenville Province. ... -
Sequential Extraction of Trace Metals as Geochemical Indicators of Land Use Near Ancient Metallurgical Sites in Faynan, Jordan
(University of Waterloo, 2023-01-23)Civilizations are tied to soils through a reliance on agriculture. In the Faynan Valley, southern Jordan, both the individuals who tend to the soils and the soils themselves have evolved through a series of environmental ... -
THE TULU KAPI GOLD DEPOSIT OF THE WESTERN ETHIOPIAN SHIELD: STRUCTURAL FRAMEWORK, U-PB ZIRCON GEOCHRONOLOGY AND PARAGENESIS
(University of Waterloo, 2019-04-10)Gold production dates back millennia in the Arabian Nubian Shield. Most of the mined deposits are in the northern portions of the shield, with little know about its southern extent. Tulu Kapi is a rare example of a gold ...
