Abstract:
This article studies the amateur elite National Soccer League in the Fiji Islands from 1980 to 1992 and the Fiji national team's landmark 1–0 win over Australia in 1988. The authors use the theoretical idea of “gesturing elsewhere,” taken from the work of popular music scholar Emma Baulch, to explain how the local Fiji soccer community receives its meaning and identity largely as the local-outpost or chapter of the global soccer scene. Therefore, a victory over the sporting powerhouse Australia boosts the self-image of the Fiji soccer world by temporarily upturning the established hierarchies. The shock 1988 win saw Fiji assigned extra credibility in the global context. The authors also look at the Indo-Fijian (Fijians of Indian decent) emigrant communities of the West and argue that, through their ongoing love of Fiji soccer, they play a role akin to offshore memory or offshore library, cataloging past history and revering past stars and classic contests.

Abstract:
AbstractIn this essay, veteran Columban missionary Frank Hoare analyzes a dispute in the Fiji Indian community over the possibilities of employing hierarchically-approved, Indian adaptations to the Liturgy in a parish in Fiji. Hoare suggests that at bottom the dispute was not only about popular religiosity versus official religious practice, nor was it even about the limits of syncretism in Christian faith and practice. Rather, it was a dispute that went to the heart of power and authority structures within several of the Fiji Indian villages in the parish. Ultimately, Hoare concludes, inculturation in the Fiji Indian context needs to go beyond importing practices from Indian Christianity and translating Hindu practices for use within Christian contexts: "... a true and deep inculturation cannot result from borrowing forms from India, even if approved by ecclesiastical authorities, but will only come about through ongoing dialogue with the Fiji Indian Catholics as they try to hear and understand the gospel faith which transcends all cultures and express it in symbols and forms of their lived experience."

Abstract:
The overarching aim of this study is to trace evidence of resistant behaviour among subordinate groups in the first forty years of Fiji's colonial history (1874-1914). By rereading archival materials "against the grain", listening to oral history, and engaging postcolonial scholarship, the study intends to disturb accepted ways of understanding Fiji's past. This approach reveals the existence of numerous people, voices, and events which until recently have remained largely on the margins of Fiji's process of historical production. As a chronological survey, the study produces a body of evidence which uncovers a rich array of forms of resistance. The points at which these forms of resistance engaged dominant culture are divided into two broad categories. The first examines several forms of organized resistance such as the Colo War of 1876, the Tuka Movement of 1878 to 1891, the Seaqaqa War of 1894, the Movement for Federation with New Zealand from 1901 to 1903, the Viti Kabani Movement of 1913 to 1917, and the various instances of organised labour protest on Fiji's plantations. The second addresses everyday forms of resistance in the villages and plantations such as tax and land boycotts, violence and retributive justice, avoidance protest, petitioning, and various aspects of women's resistance. In their entirety these aspects of resistance reveal a complex web of relationships between powerful and subordinate groups, and among subordinate groups themselves. These conclusions preclude framing resistance as a totality and advocate instead a conceptualization of resistance as a multi-layered and multi-dimensional reality. In contributing to the reconstruction and revision of Fiji's early colonial history, the study seeks to both clarify and complicate future research in the area.

Abstract:
In early December 2006, the Fijian military seized power in a coup led by the Armed Forces commander Commodore Frank Bainimarama. It was a coup long expected, and Fiji’s fourth since 1987. Internationally, the response was swift imposing sanctions and removing or delaying international aid programmes. This has a potentially significant impact on Fiji because it is one of the largest per capita recipients of developmental aid funding in the world. However, it may also have little impact because, despite such assistance, the Fijian GDP has stagnated with an average growth of under 1% for the last 20 years. Other developmental indicators are also bleak. This thesis thus examines the dichotomy between Fiji’s ODA and its apparent inability to arrest the decline of the Fijian lifestyle and economy. However, to review all international developmental programmes across all sectors of Fijian society, while maintaining contemporary relevance and coherency, is untenable. Therefore, the thesis will focus on the European Union and its external relations with Fiji. The EU is one of the most influential partners for Fiji and is often overlooked by scholars, allowing this thesis to make a valuable contribution to developmental studies in the pacific region. The thesis has selected and examines four sectors of Fijian society, that of the Economy, Governance, Sugar, and Education sectors. This is because they are the sectors that the European Union is presently devoting most attention. Therefore, these areas best illustrate Fijian reaction to the importance and effectiveness of EU involvement. Overall, the thesis intends to demonstrate both the efficacy and the attitudes of local representatives to foreign aid programmes, and ultimately provide a unique ‘inside looking out' perspective not typical of publications about Fiji.

Full text
Abstract:
Anthropogenic climate change and environmental degradation impacts are no longer a worry for the distant future but a real concern for the present. Small Island Developing States (SIDS) and the poor, who often live by fragile ecosystems, are amongst the most vulnerable and exposed to the impacts of climate change. For these populations, climate related risks exacerbate other stressors and negatively impact livelihoods, security, and health. For low lying SIDS in particular, an additional fear is that climate change endangers their whole way of life, with their nationhood and culture being slowly engulfed by the approaching sea. Whilst the need to adapt is apparent, adaptation funding and motivating people to take up adaptive behaviours is a serious challenge. According to the ODI, financing climate change adaptation in the developing world can cost upwards of US$ 100-450 billion a year. Building adaptive capacity through cost effective solutions such as microloans for adaptive investments can be a promising strategy. By utilising the case study of Fiji, this Thesis attempts to unpack the cognitive drivers of climate change adaptive stated investment behaviour through a survey-based experiment (N=205). The prominent empirical method employed in this thesis was mediation analysis and specifically path analysis whereby the model specified is driven by theory. The choice of this method is justified through a comparison with multinomial logit. In the first instance, the antecedents of climate adaptive stated behaviour and the impact of information on subsequent stated behaviour were assessed through the framework of the Theory of Planned Behaviour. In addition perceptions to climate change in Fiji were explored through guided interviews (N=50). Overall positive attitudes, subjective norms and perceived behavioural control towards conservation and adaptation positively influenced intention to invest in adaptive strategies though intention only significantly influenced subsequent stated behaviour when information on climate change adaptation was provided. Next, the efficacy of incentives in engaging adaptive investments was assessed. The results indicated that the use of ‘green’ incentives (whereby loans are contingent on ecosystem impacts) was most conducive to the choice of adaptive investments over nonadaptive. In addition behavioural intention significantly mediated stated investment behaviour under the green incentive condition – which it is argued may show that such incentives crowd-in internal motives for engaging in environmentally protective behaviours. We also found that ethnicity was a strong positive moderator of behavioural antecedents and subsequent stated investment behaviour. Lastly the moderators of stated behaviour and its antecedents were examined by exploring resource dependence, perceived shocks, and perceived severity of environmental and other issues. Again, it was found that green incentives were successful in engaging people to take up adaptive investments more so then under a dynamic (whereby loans are contingent on repayement) and a no incentive condition. It was found that perceived shocks, and resource dependence could significantly impact cognitive antecedents of behaviour as specified by the Theory of Planned Behaviour and in particular perceptions of behavioural control. Shocks, resource dependence and perceived severity also moderated subsequent stated behaviour, with greater variability between between adaptive and non-adaptive investment choices under the no incentive and dynamic incentive conditions. The latter had a greater probablity of agents choosing non-adaptive over adaptive investments whilst in the former the opposite was true. Overall the results can be useful for adaptation policies, microloan best practice, and behavioural change interventions in SIDS in particular.

Abstract:
This thesis contributes to the literature on the history of the transition from colonial to post-colonial in the Pacific. It explores the contribution of an individual to this transition, Rev. Dr. Alan Richard Tippett, as a focus for illuminating the struggles in the transitions and the development of post-colonial theory for mission. Alan Richard Tippet sailed to Fiji as an ordained Methodist missionary in 1941. He was a product of a Methodist parsonage and heir to the evangelical and revival tendencies of the Cornish Methodism of his family. He began his missionary career steeped in the colonial visions of the mission enterprise fostered by the Board of Missions of his church. He was eager to study anthropology but was given no chance to do so before he left Australia. He pursued his study of anthropology and history in Fiji and began to question the paternalism of colonial theory. Early in his time in Fiji he made the decision to join with those who sought change and the death of colonial mission. In his work as a circuit minister, theological educator, writer and administrator he worked to this end. He developed his talent for writing and research, encouraging the Fijian church to take pride in its past achievements. He became alienated from the administrators of the Australasian Methodist Board of Missions and could find no place in the Australian church. In 1961 he left Fiji and began a course of study at the newly formed Institute of Church Growth in Eugene, Oregon. This led him into the orbit of Donald McGavran and the newly emerging church growth theory of Christian mission. Although his desire was to enhance the study of post-colonial mission in Australia he could not find a position to support him even after he gained a PhD in anthropology from the University of Oregon. After research in the Solomon Islands he returned to the USA to assist Donald McGavran in the formation of the now famous School of World Mission at Fuller Theological Seminary, Pasadena. While at Fuller he exercised considerable influence in the development of missiological theory and especially the application of anthropological studies in post-colonial mission. Although he contributed to both the ecumenical and evangelical debates on mission, he found himself caught up in the bitter debates of the 1960s and 1970s between them and, despite all efforts to maintain links, lost contact with the ecumenical wing. Retiring to Australia in 1977 he found that his world reputation was not recognised in his native land. He continued his work apace, although he was deeply saddened by the ignorance he found in Australia and by his continued rejection. He finally donated his library to St. Mark???s National Theological Centre. He died in 1988 in Canberra.

König, David. "Le fini et l'infini chez Jacob Böhme : étude sur la détermination de l'absolu." Paris 4, 2006. http://www.theses.paris-sorbonne.fr/konig/html/index-frames.html.

Full text
Abstract:
Cette thèse prend pour base l'œuvre de Jacob Böhme (1575-1624) afin d'étudier les rapports du fini et de l'Absolu dans le monisme. Le concept central de la spéculation böhmienne est le " Sans-fond " (Ungrund) : Unité suressentielle, Néant indéterminé, Volonté pure. Le caractère volontariste de cette unité méontologique transforme la pensée böhmienne en un monisme dynamique non réductible à l'hénologie apophatique traditionnelle ; se fait ainsi jour dans la doctrine un mouvement de manifestation de l'Ungrund dans le Grund, c'est-à-dire une introduction et une réalisation de l'Absolu dans la limite et dans la finitude, qui n'est pas conçu comme une chute mais comme une médiation positive aboutissant à fonder l'infini dans le fini. Partant du néant absolu, la doctrine fonde en outre la subjectivité de la substance à partir de sa propre impersonnalité. Il est donc possible de repérer, chez le maître de Görlitz, un schème de la manifestation de l'Ungrund qui ordonne la manière dont le premier principe parachève progressivement son essence à travers les modifications (" omnis determinatio positio est "). L'étude de la détermination ontologique et gnoséologique de ce néant constitue précisément l'axe central de ce travail : il s'agit de mettre en lumière le processus de détermination de la substance qui préside à la transformation de l'Absolu en essence et de l'essence en être, ainsi que d'analyser le rapport liant le fini à l'infini dans cette manifestation (opposition ou inféodation). Cette étude a enfin pour objet d'éclairer les liens qui rattachent la doctrine de Böhme à la mystique spéculative allemande et à l'idéalisme postkantien (particulièrement à Hegel et à Schelling)
This thesis bases its theory on the work of Jacob Böhme (1575-1624), in order to study the relationship between the finite and the infinite in monism. The main concept of the Boehmian speculation is the “Ungrund”, which is a superessential One, an indeterminate Nothingness and a pure Will. The voluntaristic nature of this meontological unity turns the Boehmian thought into a dynamic monism, instead of reducing it to the tradition of the apophatic henology. The movement which is at work in the Boehmian theory is a manifestation of the Ungrund in the Grund, that is to say the introduction and the realisation of the Absolute in the limit of finity; this process is not conceived as a fall, but as a positive mediation, necessary to create a basis for the infinite into the finite. It is therefore possible to outline the metaphysical scheme assigned to reveal the Ungrund and to progressively manifest the Absolute into alien modifications (according to this heterodox formula: “omnis determinatio positio est”). The analysis of this onto-gnoseological process of determination forms the structure of this study: its goal is to bring to light the entire process of manifestation as well as the relationship it creates between the finite and the infinite (which can be an opposition or an infeudation). Finally, this study intends to throw a new light on the relationship between the doctrine of Jacob Böhme and that of the German Mysticism and German Idealism (mainly Hegel and Schelling)

The objective of this study is to determine how one of the three largest circulation national newspapers in Brazil Folha de S. Paulo covered Venezuela and President Hugo Chávez between the years 2002-2005. During this period Venezuela went through one of the most troubled times in its recent history with a coup in 2002, strikes, social demonstrations, recall referendums and the opposition refusal to participate in the legislative elections in 2005 facts that justify the attention given to the country by the communications media. In the development of this dissertation points pertinent to the methodology adopted and relevant historical aspects recovered from the trajectory of the newspaper Folha de S. Paulo are clarified within its chapters. A full background on recent Venezuelan history is seen, from the introduction of liberal democracy in the country in 1958, based on the role of traditional political parties such as Acción Democrática and COPEI and the agreement known as the Punto Fijo Pact, that was responsible for the adoption of neo-liberal policies that led to crises in the decades of the 1980s and 1990s and which resulted in the election of Hugo Chávez in 1998. Analysis is also seen of Folha de S. Paulo s editorial coverage in relation to the Venezuelan government and highlighting of the arguments that led this paper to consider it undemocratic, besides explaining the paper s understanding of democracy and how this could be linked to a liberal definition of the concept, as well as proceeding to an analysis of the Venezuelan opposition newspaper and the similarities between the coverage of Folha and that of private Venezuelan communication media against the government established by Chávez. In this way the analysis recurs to the interwoven critique of Hugo Chávez and the construction of his images as a populist leader a concept that became the subject of considerable historical discussion, bearing negative value from the links of his profile as a politician who deceived and manipulated the populace. Thus, we have aimed at a critical look at the concepts used by the Folha de S. Paulo to explain the nature of the Chávez government, beginning with data of the Venezuelan social reality that could explain the nature of the Chávez government and how it became possible to identify the ideology propagated by the Brazilian newspaper recovered from identification of the social function to which it complies as a vehicle of the major press and media and its influence in shaping Brazilian public opinion in relation to its neighboring country
O trabalho tem por objetivo apresentar a cobertura realizada pelo jornal brasileiro Folha de S. Paulo um dos três jornais do país que conta com ampla circulação nacional no que se refere à Venezuela e ao presidente Hugo Chávez entre os anos de 2002 e 2005. Durante este período a Venezuela passou por um dos momentos mais conturbados de sua história recente, com golpe de Estado em 2002, greves, manifestações sociais, referendos revogatórios e a recusa da oposição em participar das eleições legislativas em 2005, fatos que justificaram a atenção dada ao país pelos meios de comunicação. Na elaboração desta dissertação e ao longo de seus capítulos são esclarecidos os pontos pertinentes à metodologia adotada e resgata-se da historiografia aspectos relevantes da trajetória do jornal Folha de S. Paulo. A realização de uma retrospectiva sobre a história recente venezuelana foi observada desde a instauração da liberaldemocracia no país em 1958, com o protagonismo de seus partidos políticos tradicionais como Acción Democrática e COPEI e o acordo que ficou conhecido como Pacto de Punto Fijo, responsável pela adoção de políticas neoliberais que levaram às crises ocorridas durante as décadas de 1980 e 1990 e que resultou na eleição de Hugo Chávez em 1998. Também se observa a análise da cobertura da Folha de S. Paulo em seus editoriais sobre o governo venezuelano e a destacada argumentação que promoveu este periódico em considerá-lo antidemocrático, além de explicitar o entendimento do jornal sobre democracia e como pode ser vinculada à definição liberal do conceito, bem como se procedeu a análise dos jornais de oposição na Venezuela e as semelhanças entre a cobertura da Folha e a realizada pelos meios de comunicação privados venezuelanos, contrários ao governo implantado por Chávez. Desse modo, a análise recai sobre a crítica tecida a Hugo Chávez e a construção de sua imagem como um líder populista conceito que se tornou alvo de grande discussão historiográfica ao carregar em sua definição um valor negativo , além de vincular seu perfil ao de um político que enganou e manipulou a população. Nesse sentido, procurou-se fazer a crítica aos conceitos utilizados pela Folha de S. Paulo, a partir de dados da realidade social venezuelana que explicitaram a natureza do governo Chávez e que tornaram possível identificar a ideologia propagada pelo jornal brasileiro, resgatada a partir da identificação da função social que este cumpre como veículo da grande imprensa e de interferência na construção da opinião pública brasileira em relação ao país vizinho

Full text
Abstract:
La faille de haiyuan s'etend sur plus de 1000 km en bordure nord-est du tibet et accommode la partie decrochante senestre de la convergence entre le tibet et la plateforme de gobi. Sa partie centrale (220 km) constitue une lacune sismique. Nous etudions le comportement de cette faille sur quelques annees a quelques millions d'annees. Cinq seismes de m>5, les plus forts depuis ceux de 1920 et 1927 (m8), se sont produits pres de la lacune depuis 1986. Nous avons determine les mecanismes au foyer et l'origine tectonique des seismes de tianzhu (01/06/96) et yongden (21/07/95), qui mettent en jeu des structures secondaires de la faille. La microsismicite enregistree de 1996 a 1998 par six stations autour de la lacune confirme l'existence d'un decollement reliant en profondeur (15-20 km) les chevauchements des qilian shan et la faille de haiyuan. L'analyse photogrammetrique de photographies du segment du maomao shan de la lacune, prises par un avion teleguide, a permis de mesurer les decalages de bords de terrasses alluviales, datees au 1 4c, et d'en deduire la vitesse holocene de ce segment : 124 mm/an. Au moins deux seismes passes de m8 semblent s'etre produits sur la lacune, possibles seismes caracteristiques, de deplacement cosismique 124 m, se repetant tous les 1050450 ans. La vitesse post-glaciaire du segment du leng long ling, 205 mm/an, a l'ouest de la jonction des failles de haiyuan et gulang, a ete deduite du decalage d'une moraine glaciaire, datee par isotopes cosmogeniques ( 2 6al, 1 0be). Les premieres mesures gps entre 1994 et 1999 de deux profils perpendiculaires a la lacune montrent des mouvements compatibles avec une faille senestre, encore difficilement interpretables en terme de vitesse de glissement actuelle. L'existence de la faille pourrait remonter au miocene superieur. Son rejet fini, dont nous identifions de nouveaux marqueurs morphologiques et geologiques, pourrait etre superieur a 100 km.

Abstract:
This introductory chapter discusses why, despite the negative assumptions regarding the islands of Fiji during the nineteenth century, Americans still went there. Indeed, several thousand of them voyaged to Fiji on merchant, whaling, and naval vessels in the decades before British colonization of the islands in 1874. And more than a hundred Americans lived and died there. From a macro perspective, explaining the American presence in Fiji seems simple. Their rationale was economic: Americans went to Fiji to extract resources to sell in China. Fiji became one leg in the U.S.–China trade and a source of great wealth for the American merchants who gambled their fortunes on it. However, a closer inspection reveals that the foot soldiers of early U.S. global expansion, the individual Americans who ventured overseas, did so for more complicated reasons. An assortment of personal ambitions impelled Americans to travel to distant locales. Their motivations, albeit multiple and divergent, often derived from a desire to be respected by others and thereby attain a sense of self-worth. Their strivings to rise in others' estimation influenced the course of Fiji's history and, albeit more subtly, the history of the United States.

Abstract:
Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a major public health problem because of its associated complications during pregnancy. Studies have suggested that women with positive parental history of diabetes may be predisposed to an increased GDM risk. This study aimed to examine the correlation between family history with diabetes mellitus and the gestational diabetes mellitus. Subjects and Method: This was a meta-analysis and systematic review. The study was collected articles from PubMed, Science Direct, and Google Scholar databases, from year 2017 to 2020. Keywords used “gestational diabetes mellitus” OR “GDM” AND “pregnancy induced diabetes” AND “family history of diabetes” AND “crosssectional”. The study subject was pregnant women. Intervention was family history with diabetes mellitus with comparison no family history of diabetes mellitus. The study outcome was gestational diabetes mellitus. The articles were selected by PRISMA flow chart. The quantitative data were analyzed by ReVman 5.3. Results: 7 studies from Kuwait, Ethiopia, Fiji, Malaysia, and China, reported that family history with diabetes mellitus increased the risk of gestational diabetes mellitus (aOR= 1.68; 95% CI= 0.87 to 3.26; p= 0.120). Conclusion: Family history with diabetes mellitus increases the risk of gestational diabetes mellitus. Keywords: gestational diabetes mellitus, pregnancy induced diabetes, family history of diabetes Correspondence: Ummu Fsatihah Ammutammima. Masters Program Universitas Sebelas Maret. Jl. Ir.

Abstract:
This paper looks at the Sutro Baths (1894-96) in San Francisco as an early example of the interiorization of public space, as a pioneer “Fun Palace” and a stage of consumption. The Sutro Baths were an encapsulated microcosms, the delirious dream of an ambitious millionaire, engineer, and later major of San Francisco. Sutro, a German immigrant and entrepreneur managed to encapsulate the ocean inside a spectacular glass palace. The history of these baths is also a reflection of the problems of social inclusion and exclusion derived from the privatization of public space. Besides being the largest interior space for bathers in the world at the time, the Sutro Baths are considered to be the first water park: a strange amalgam of pools, burgers, a taxidermy collection, a wax museum and a winter garden aspiring to the hanging gardens of Babylon. The climatized atmosphere and the ocean were sheltered, altered, domesticated and commodified: “Always as balmy and summery as mid-June…Here’s is the spot to loaf in tropic comfort like a Fiji Islander. No nudist and practically no missionaries, but everything else is Number One Triple A Tropical Style!”1 Sutro inaugurated a new typology, the lineage of which portrays a history of attempts to construct autonomous spaces for immersion within altered physics that are internalized and that offer a new type of socio-natural form. Inside these hedonistic bubbles, public life is reduced to a collective leisure experience.

Abstract:
Lo studio qui proposto ha preso l’avvio da due eventi fondamentali per lo sviluppo urbanistico della città di Viterbo, nessuno dei quali possiamo dire costituisca la conseguenza di una politica urbana di indirizzo. Il primo ha decretato, a partire dagli anni Ottanta del secolo scorso, lo spopolamento e il progressivo degrado del centro storico a seguito del vero e proprio esodo verso i nuovi insediamenti di edilizia economica e popolare e soprattutto verso le innumerevoli ville, costruite facendole passare per fabbricati rurali, nelle zone agricole a ridosso della città; il secondo, tuttora in atto, registra una tendenza opposta in virtù dei mutamenti profondi occorsi nel tessuto sociale e della mutata situazione economica. Le scarse disponibilità economiche hanno reso infatti nuovamente appetibili, da parte di nuovi fruitori con scarse possibilità economiche, i numerosi immobili del centro rimasti liberi e in cattive condizioni di manutenzione, dapprima senza operare alcuna alterazione nel tessuto edilizio esistente; quindi è iniziata un’operazione sistematica di portata ben diversa, mirata alla trasformazione in unità abitative minime dei locali situati al livello stradale adibiti un tempo a magazzini e cantine. Esigenze differenti di persone differenti hanno indotto una nuova territorializzazione della città storica. Resta da capire in che misura questo processo sia stato previsto o valutato, e se la costituzione di un tessuto sociale così omogeneo nella struttura possa considerarsi positivamente ai fini del riequilibrio socio-economico complessivo, di cui il problema edilizioabitativo rappresenta solo uno degli aspetti The aim of this paper is to reflect on two major trends concerning the urban development of the city of Viterbo, neither of which appears to stem from a precise urban policy. The first one was the depopulation and progressive decline of the ancient city centre caused by the relocation of the inhabitants towards the new council housing settlements and especially towards the countless new villas, originally intended as farm houses on agricultural land adjacent to the city. The second one, still ongoing, is an opposite trend, the result of profound changes in the social fabric of the society and of the present economic stagnation. Many unoccupied and neglected houses and flats in the city centre are appealing to people with limited financial means, in spite of the lack of upgrading. In addition, basements and cellars are being converted into actual housing units. The needs of the abovementioned people have triggered a new territorialisation of the historic centre. It is yet to be determined to what extent this phenomenon has been contemplated and understood, and whether the rise of such a uniform social fabric should be construed as positive for the general socioeconomic balance, of which the housing issue is only one of the factors.

Abstract:
New high precision lithogeochemistry and Nd and Hf isotopic data were collected on felsic rocks of the Rambler Rhyolite formation from the Ming volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) deposit, Baie Verte Peninsula, Newfoundland. The Rambler Rhyolite formation consists of intermediate to felsic volcanic and volcaniclastic rocks with U-shaped primitive mantle normalized trace element patterns with negative Nb anomalies, light rare earth element-enrichment (high La/Sm), and distinctively positive Zr and Hf anomalies relative to surrounding middle rare earth elements (high Zr-Hf/Sm). The Rambler Rhyolite samples have epsilon-Ndt = -2.5 to -1.1 and epsilon-Hft = +3.6 to +6.6; depleted mantle model ages are TDM(Nd) = 1.3-1.5 Ga and TDM(Hf) = 0.9-1.1Ga. The decoupling of the Nd and Hf isotopic data is reflected in epsilon-Hft isotopic data that lies above the mantle array in epsilon-Ndt -epsilon-Hft space with positive ?epsilon-Hft values (+2.3 to +6.2). These Hf-Nd isotopic attributes, and high Zr-Hf/Sm and U-shaped trace element patterns, are consistent with these rocks having formed as slab melts, consistent with previous studies. The association of these slab melt rocks with Au-bearing VMS mineralization, and their FI-FII trace element signatures that are similar to rhyolites in Au-rich VMS deposits in other belts (e.g., Abitibi), suggests that assuming that FI-FII felsic rocks are less prospective is invalid and highlights the importance of having an integrated, full understanding of the tectono-magmatic history of a given belt before assigning whether or not it is prospective for VMS mineralization.
