Abstract:
The composition of the parental magmas of Cu–Ni deposits is crucial for the elucidation of their genesis. In order to estimate the role of magma in ore formation, it is necessary to compare the compositions of silicate rock intrusions with different mineralization patterns, as observed in the Norilsk region. The rock geochemistry of two massifs located in the same Devonian carbonate rocks—the Kharaelakh intrusion, with its world-class platinum-group element (PGE)–Cu–Ni deposit, and the Pyasinsky-Vologochansky intrusion, with its large deposit—was studied. Along with these massifs, the Norilsk 2 massif with noneconomic mineralization intruded in the Ivakinskaya-Nadezhdinskaya basalts was studied as well. Their settings allow the estimation of the parental magma composition, taking into account the possible assimilation of host rocks. Analyses of 39 elements in 97 samples demonstrated the similarity of the intrusions in terms of their major components. The Pyasinsky-Vologochansky intrusion contains the highest trace element contents compared with the Kharaelakh and Norilsk 2 massifs, evidencing its crystallization from evolved parental magma. No influence of host rocks on the silicate rock compositions was found, except for narrow (1–2 m) endo-contact zones. There is no correlation between the mineralization volume and the rock compositions of the studied intrusions. It is assumed that the intrusions were formed from one magma crustal source irregularly rich in sulfur (S). This source inhomogeneity in terms of the sulfur distribution resulted in deposits of varying sizes. The magmas served as a transporting agent for sulfides from deep zones to the surface.

Abstract:
Several Ni-Cu deposits occur within the Kotalahti area, central Finland, in proximity to an Archaean gneiss dome surrounded by a Palaeoproterozoic craton-margin supracrustal sequence comprising quartzites, limestones, calc-silicate rocks, black schists and banded diopside amphibolites. The geology of the area and age of the Ni-bearing intrusions (1.88 Ga) are similar to the Thompson Ni belt in the Canadian Trans-Hudson Orogen. The small mafic-ultramafic and Ni-Cu -bearing Särkiniemi intrusion, closely associated with the Archaean basement core of the Kotalahti Dome, is composed of a western peridotite and eastern gabbro body, both of which are mineralized. The eastern gabbro has a contact aureole several meters thick, consisting of orthopyroxene +/- cordierite bearing hornfels between the intrusion and the migmatites. Geochemically, the Särkiniemi intrusion shares many features in common with other Svecofennian mafic-ultramafic intrusions, including crustal contamination and nickel depletion. The related Ni-Cu deposit has a low Ni/Co value (15) and low nickel content in the sulphide fraction (2.8 wt.%), together with a low estimated magma/sulphide ratio of around 170. Svecofennian 1.88 Ga mafic-ultramafic intrusions occur in terrains of variable metamorphic grade (from low-amphibolite to granulite facies) and are likely to represent emplacement at different crustal depths. Multi-equilibrium thermobarometry indicates that the contact aureole at Särkiniemi reached equilibrium at pressures of 4.5–6 kbar (15–20 km depth) and temperatures of 600–670 °C. Combined with the results of earlier research on the Svecofennian intrusions, this study indicates that a depth of 15–20 km crustal level was favourable, along with other critical factors, for nickel sulfide deposition at 1.88 Ga.

Abstract:
The Kristineberg mining area in the western part of the Paleoproterozoic Skellefte Ore District, northern Sweden, is well known for its base-metal and recent gold discoveries. A pilot 3D geologic model has been constructed on a crustal scale, covering an area of [Formula: see text] to depths of [Formula: see text]. Constrained 3D inverse and forward gravity modeling have been performed to confirm and refine previous modeling along seismic profiles using mainly 2.5D techniques. The 3D inverse gravity modeling was geared to generating isodensity surfaces that enclose regions within the model of anomalous density contrast. The 3D forward gravity modeling was conducted to include faulting and folding systems that are difficult to include in the inversion. The 3D geologic model supports many previous interpretations but also reveals new features of the regional geology that are important for future targeting of base-metal and gold deposits. The margins of a thick granite in the south dip steeply inward, suggesting the possibility of room to accommodate another large base-metal deposit if the granitic rocks are juxtaposed with volcanic rocks at depth. Gravity modeling also suggests the observed Bouguer gravity high within the western metasediments can be explained by a large mafic intrusion that has dioritic to tonalitic composition and no significant magnetic signature. Because mafic-ultramafic intrusions within metasediments can indicate gold, this interpretation suggests the western metasediments have a high gold potential.

Abstract:
In gold-endowed greenstone belts, ore bodies generally correspond to orogenic gold systems (OGS) formed during the main deformation stage that led to craton stabilization (syntectonic period). Most OGS deposits postdate and locally overprint magmatic-hydrothermal systems, such as Au-Cu porphyry that mostly formed during the main magmatic stage (synvolcanic period) and polymetallic intrusion-related gold systems (IRGS) of the syntectonic period. Porphyries are associated with tonalite-dominated and sanukitoid plutons, whereas most IRGS are related to alkaline magmatism. As reviewed here, most intrusion-associated mineralization in the Abitibi greenstone belt is the result of complex and local multistage metallogenic processes. A new classification is proposed that includes (1) OGS and OGS-like deposits dominated by metamorphic and magmatic fluids, respectively; (2) porphyry and IRGS that may contain gold remobilized during subsequent deformation episodes; (3) porphyry and IRGS that are overprinted by OGS. Both OGS and OGS-like deposits are associated with crustal-scale faults and display similar gold-deposition mechanisms. The main difference is that magmatic fluid input may increase the oxidation state and CO2 content of the mineralizing fluid for OGS-like deposits, while OGS are characterized by the circulation of reduced metamorphic fluids. For porphyry and IRGS, mineralizing fluids and metals have a magmatic origin. Porphyries are defined as base metal and gold-bearing deposits associated with large-volume intrusions, while IRGS are gold deposits that may display a polymetallic signature and that can be associated with small-volume syntectonic intrusions. Some porphyry, such as the Côté Gold deposit, demonstrate that magmatic systems can generate economically significant gold mineralization. In addition, many deposits display evidence of multistage processes and correspond to gold-bearing or gold-barren magmatic-hydrothermal systems overprinted by OGS or by gold-barren metamorphic fluids. In most cases, the source of gold remains debated. Whether magmatic activity was essential or marginal for fertilizing the upper crust during the Neoarchean remains a major topic for future research, and petrogenetic investigations may be paramount for distinguishing gold-endowed from barren greenstone belts.

Abstract:
Fe isotopes have been applied to the petrogenesis of ore deposits. However, the behavior of iron isotopes in the mineralization of porphyry-skarn deposits is still poorly understood. In this study, we report the Fe isotopes of ore mineral separations (magnetite, pyrite, chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite) from two different skarn deposits, i.e., the Tonglvshan Cu-Fe skarn deposit developed in an oxidized hydrothermal system and the Anqing Cu skarn deposit developed in a reduced hydrothermal system. In both deposits, the Fe isotopes of calculated equilibrium fluids are lighter than those of the intrusions responsible for the skarn and porphyry mineralization, corroborating the “light-Fe fluid” hypothesis. Interestingly, chalcopyrite in the oxidized-Tonglvshan skarn deposit has lighter Fe than chalcopyrite in the reduced-Anqing skarn deposit, which is best understood as the result of the prior precipitation of magnetite (heavy Fe) from the ore fluid in the oxidized-Tonglvshan systems and the prior precipitation of pyrrhotite (light Fe) from the ore fluid in the reduced-Anqing system. The δ56Fe for pyrite shows an inverse correlation with δ56Fe of magnetite in the Tonglvshan. In both deposits, the Fe isotope fractionation between chalcopyrite and pyrite is offset from the equilibrium line at 350 °C and lies between the FeS-chalcopyrite equilibrium line and pyrite-chalcopyrite equilibrium line at 350 °C. These observations are consistent with the FeS pathway towards pyrite formation. That is, Fe isotopes fractionation during pyrite formation depends on a path from the initial FeS-fluid equilibrium towards the pyrite-fluid equilibrium due to the increasing extent of Fe isotopic exchange with fluids. This finding, together with the data from other deposits, allows us to propose that the pathway effect of pyrite formation in the Porphyry-skarn deposit mineralization is the dominant mechanism that controls Fe isotope characteristics.

Abstract:
The Heazlewood-Luina-Waratah area is a prospective region for minerals in northwest Tasmania, Australia, associated with historically important ore deposits related to the emplacement of granite intrusions and/or ultramafic complexes. The geology of the area is poorly understood due to the difficult terrain and dense vegetation. We have constructed an initial high-resolution 3D geologic model of this area using constraints from geologic maps and geologic and geophysical cross sections. This initial model is improved upon by integrating results from 3D geometry and physical property inversion of potential field (gravity and magnetic) data, petrophysical measurements, and updated field mapping. Geometry inversion reveals that the Devonian granites in the south are thicker than previously thought, possibly connecting to deep sources of mineralization. In addition, we identified gravity anomalies to the northeast that could be caused by near-surface granite cupolas. A newly discovered ultramafic complex linking the Heazlewood and Mount Stewart Ultramafic Complexes in the southwest also has been modeled. This implies a greater volume of ultramafic material in the Cambrian successions and points to a larger obducted component than previously thought. The newly inferred granite cupolas and ultramafic complexes are targets for future mineral exploration. Petrophysical property inversion reveals a high degree of variation in these properties within the ultramafic complexes indicating a variable degree of serpentinization. Sensitivity tests suggest maximum depths of 2–3 km for the contact aureole that surrounds major granitic intrusions in the southeast, whereas the Heazlewood River complex is likely to have a deeper source up to 4 km. We have demonstrated the value of adding geologic and petrophysical constraints to 3D modeling for the purpose of guiding mineral exploration. This is particularly important for the refinement of geologic structures in tectonically complex areas that have lithology units with contrasting magnetic and density characteristics.

Abstract:
The Duobaoshan (DBS)-Tongshan (TS) porphyry Cu–(Mo) deposit (4.4 Mt Cu, 0.15 Mt Mo) is located in the northeastern part of the central Asian orogenic belt (CAOB) in northeastern China. It is hosted by early Ordovician dioritic to granodioritic intrusions which are characterized by the subduction-related geochemical signatures including high concentrations of large ion lithophile elements (LILEs) and light rare earth elements (LREEs), and low concentrations of heavy REEs (HREEs) and high-field -strength elements (HFSEs), such as Nb, Ta, Zr and Ti in bulk rock compositions. Furthermore, they show adakitic geochemical signatures of high Sr/Y ratios (29~55) due to high Sr (290~750 ppm) and low Y (<18 ppm). Zircon trace element abundances and published Sr-Nd-Hf isotope data of these rocks suggest that the parental magmas for these ore-bearing intrusions were rich in H2O and formed by partial melting of a juvenile lower crust/lithospheric mantle or metasomatized mantle wedge during the northwestward subduction of the Paleo-Asian Ocean before the collision of the Songnen block with the Erguna-Xing’an amalgamated block in the early Carboniferous. Values of Ce4+/Ce3+ and Ce/Nd in zircons are 307~461 and 14.1~20.3 for mineralized granodiorites, and 231~350 and 12.4~18.2 for variably altered diorite and granodiorites in DBS, whereas those for DBS-TS microgabbros are 174~357 and 7.4~22, and 45.9~62.6 and 5.0~5.8 for the early Mosozoic Qz-monzonites, respectively. Zircon Eu/Eu* values are high and similar among mineralized granodiorites (~0.6), altered diorite and granodiorites (~0.6) and the Mesozoic Qz-monzonites (~0.8), whereas the values are low and variable for the DBS-TS microgabbros (0.3~0.6). The magma oxidation state calculated from zircon chemistry and whole rock compositions are FMQ +1.0 to +1.5 in mineralized samples, and FMQ +2.4 to +4.2 in altered samples. The values are comparable to those for the fertile intrusions hosting porphyry Cu-Mo-(Au) deposits in the central and western CAOB and elsewhere in the world. Elevated oxidation state is also observed in the TS microgabbros, FMQ +1.4 to +1.9, and the early Mesozoic Qz-monzonites, FMQ +2.4 to +2.5. Comparison of zircon geochemistry data from porphyry deposists elsewhere suggests that positive Ce anomalies are generally associated with fertile intrusions, but not all igneous rocks with high Ce anomalies are Cu fertile. The findings in this study are useful in exploration work and evaluating oxidation state of magmas for porphyry Cu-(Mo) deposits in the region and elsewhere.

Abstract:
A generalization of the results of the study of the composition of metal-bearing fluids of cobalt deposits of hydrothermal Genesis, formed in different geodynamic settings in connection with the formation of alkaline and alkaline-basite intrusions and dikes. To determine the physical and chemical parameters of ore deposition from fluid inclusions in minerals, both traditional and new instrumental methods of thermobarogeochemistry were used: thermo-and cryometry, RAMAN spectroscopy, concentration of ore and petrogenic elements in individual fluid inclusions were evaluated by LA-ICP-MS. The obtained results served as the basis for the study, the main task of which was the thermodynamic modeling of the conditions of joint transport and deposition of Co, Ni, Cu, Fe, Mg, Ca, Ag, Au, Bi, U, Pt and Pd C calculation of a number of equilibrium States of the hydrothermal system, the composition close to the natural ore-forming fluids. Physical and chemical factors of native deposits-gold, silver, platinum and palladium in the ores of such deposits are revealed. The obtained data can serve as a basis for the development of correct genetic models of ore-forming systems of cobalt deposits and contribute to solving the problems of their search.

Abstract:
A field study combined with a laboratory study and 3D modeling have been performed in order to decipher the genesis of the Salau deposit W-Au mineralization (Pyrenees, France), one of the most important for tungsten in Europe. Results show the existence of two superimposed ore types, emplaced ca. 10 km depth and within decreasing temperature conditions: a calcic silicates skarn with rare scheelite and disseminated sulphides followed by a mineralized breccia with massive sulphides (pyrrhotite and chalcopyrite dominant), coarse-grained scheelite and gold, representing the main part of the ore mined in the past. This breccia is localized in ductile-brittle shear-zones which crosscut the granodiorite. U/Pb dating on zircon, apatite and scheelite, previously realized, confirmed this polyphase evolution. These two types of mineralization, linked to the emplacement of two successive intrusions as confirmed by sulphur isotopic analysis, granodioritic then leucogranitic, can be classified as belonging to the Intrusion-Related Gold Deposit type (IRGD). The emplacement of the high-grade gold and scheelite breccia was initiated by the progressive localization of the regional deformation in the Axial Zone of the Pyrenees during the Permian within E-W dextral-reverse faults.

Abstract:
Lead isotope compositions have been obtained from five major volcanic and intrusive rock suites and several ore deposits on Vancouver Island. Lead, uranium and thorium concentrations and strontium isotope ratios have been obtained for a subset of these samples. The rock suites examined are the Paleozoic Sicker Group, Triassic Karmutsen Formation, Jurassic Island Intrusions and Bonanza Group volcanic rocks, and the Eocene Catface intrusions. Isotope geochemistry of the Sicker Group is consistent with the interpretation that it formed as an island arc. Relatively high 207pb/204pb ratios indicate sediment involvement in the subduction process, which suggests that the Sicker Group formed close to a continent. Buttle Lake ore deposits display decreasingly radiogenic lead isotope ratios with time, suggesting that the associated magmas become increasingly primitive. This supports the hypothesis that these deposits formed during the establishment of rifting in a back-arc environment. Karmutsen Formation flood basalts display isotopic mixing between an ocean island-type mantle source and average crust. Isotopic evidence is used to support a Northern Hemisphere origin for these basalts. Mixing is apparent in the lead and strontium isotope signatures of the Island Intrusions and Bonanza Group volcanic rocks, between depleted mantle and crustal (possibly trench sediments) components. This is consistent with formation of these rocks in an island arc environment. Eocene Catface intrusions have relatively high 207pb/204pb indicating that crustal material was involved in their formation. There are two groups of plutons corresponding to an east belt and west belt classification. Galena from the Zeballos mining camp related to the Eocene Zeballos pluton indicates that the mineralization was derived from the pluton. Galena lead isotope data from Vancouver Island may be interpreted in a general way by comparison with data from deposits elsewhere of known age and origin. No single growth curve model can be applied. Lead isotope characteristics of Vancouver Island are clearly different from those of the North American craton, reflecting the oceanic affinities of this terrane. A new technique has been developed to compare 207pb/204pb ratios between samples with differing 206pb/204pb ratios. The procedure projects 207pb/204pb ratios along suitable isochrons until they intersect a reference value of 206pb/204pb. This technique can be used for interpreting lead isotope data from old terranes, in which lead and uranium may have undergone loss or gain, and if lead and uranium abundances have not been measured.

Full text
Abstract:
Candelaria, situated in central western Nevada, along the western margin of the Great Basin, is a large and predominantly low grade, epigenetic disseminated- and vein-type Ag deposit, of Early Cretaceous age. It represents the eroded, deeply oxidised and fault-disrupted root of extensive stratiform quartz-dolomite stockworked and sericite-dolomite-altered zones of medium temperature pyrite-dominated Ag(-Pb-Zn-Sb-As±Cu±Au) sulphide-sulphosalt mineralisation, which is hosted by receptive sedimentary and igneous rocks within structurally favourable zones in a district-scale tectonic pinchout, and which is genetically associated with Cordilleran granodiorite porphyry hypabyssal magmatism (diking), of high K calc-alkaline affinity. The mineralisation occurs along and directly beneath the Pickhandle allochthon, a serpentinite-sheathed volcanic-sedimentary tectonic méange which forms a local 'sole' plate to the regionally extensive Golconda allochthon, which was emplaced onto the edge of continental North America during the Early Triassic Sonoma orogeny. Mineralisation occurred where an irregularity in the Pickhandle thrust plane, caused by thickening of the méange, effected locally deeper truncation of the parautochthonous foreland sequence in its footwall - chiefly marine sediments of the Lower Triassic Candelaria Formation - against the deformed cherts of the Ordovician basement (Palmetto complex), to form a structural trap. Within this trap, mineralisation is hosted mainly by carbonaceous, carbonate- and phosphate-rich (and trace metal-rich) black shales at the base of the Candelaria Formation and by dolomite-quartz-altered serpentinites at the base of the Pickhandle allochthon. Stable isotope data (O, H, S) point to a predominantly magmatic source for the hydrothermal fluids and ore sulphur, a source most likely to be the parent pluton to the granodiorite porphyry dikes. More ore metals were also of igneous origin (mass balance calculations rule out Candelaria member 1 as the chief metal source).

Abstract:
The Stewart mining camp in northwestern British Columbia is abundantly mineralized with widely distributed, texturally and mineralogically varied, precious and base metal deposits. This report documents the geologic setting of the mining camp and the geologic features of the major mineral deposit types. The Stewart camp is underlain by a 5-kilometre-thick Upper Triassic to Lower Jurassic (Norian? to Toarcian) island arc complex of calc-alkaline basalts, andesites and dacites with interbedded sedimentary rocks. Coeval (211-189 Ma) hornblende granodiorite plutons intruded the arc at two to five kilometres depth. Rocks were deformed during mid-Cretaceous (110 ± 5 Ma) tectonism that produced north-northwest-trending folds, penetrative fabric and lower greenschist facies regional metamorphism (290°±20°C, 4.5 ±1.5 kb). Mid-Eocene (54.8-44.8 Ma) biotite granodiorite of the Coast Plutonic Complex intruded the deformed Mesozoic arc complex. Two mineralizing events formed over 200 mineral occurrences in the district. These two metallogenic epochs were brief (< 5 million years), regional-scale phenomena characterized by different base and precious metal suites. The Early Jurassic ore-forming episode produced Au and Au-Ag-Zn-Pb-Cu deposits. The mid-Eocene episode produced Ag-Pb-Zn ± W ± Mo deposits. Early Jurassic deposits have a characteristic lead isotope signature (²⁰⁶Pb/²⁰⁴Pb = 18.816; ²⁰⁷Pb/²⁰⁴Pb = 15.617) and include gold-pyrrhotite veins, gold-silver-base metal veins, and stratabound pyritic dacites. All Early Jurassic mineral occurrences are late- to post-intrusive deposits that were emplaced in andesitic to dacitic host rocks at the close of volcanic activity, about 190-185 million years ago. Transitional gold-pyrrhotite veins (Scottie Gold mine) formed in en echelon tension gashes developed in country rock around Early Jurassic plutons during late magma movement. Epithermal gold-silver-base metal veins and breccia veins (Big Missouri and Silbak Premier mines) were deposited along shallower sub-volcanic faults and in hydrothermal breccia zones formed along dyke contacts. Stratabound pyritic dacite tuffs (Mount Dilworth and Iron Cap prospects) formed where venting fumarolic fluids and hotspring pools deposited abundant fine pyrite in local areas on a cooling ignimbrite sheet. Eocene deposits also have a characteristic lead isotope signature (²⁰⁶Pb/²⁰⁴Pb = 19.147; ²⁰⁷Pb/²⁰⁴Pd = 15.627) and include silver-rich galena-sphalerite veins, gold-silver skarns and, beyond the study area, porphyry molybdenum deposits. These mineral occurrences are related to Middle Eocene plutons of the Coast Plutonic Complex. All are late- to post-intrusive deposits emplaced about 50-45 million years ago. Mesothermal silver-lead-zinc veins (Prosperity/Porter Idaho and Riverside mines) were deposited in brittle zones along major fault structures. Skarns (Oral M and Red Reef prospects) developed where plutons cut limestone or limy siltstone units within minor turbidite sequences. Major porphyry molybdenum deposits (Kitsault mine and Ajax) developed where mid-Eocene stocks were emplaced in thick turbidite sequences. Diagnostic features such as lead isotope ratios, stratigraphic and plutonic associations, alteration assemblages, sulphide mineralogy and textures, and precious metal ratios allow discrimination amoung these different deposit types. Using these criteria, the most prospective areas for each deposit type have been targetted for exploration.

Abstract:
Iron-formations are ferruginous sedimentary rocks which have their source from fumarolic activity associated with submarine volcanism, with deposition of iron as oxides, hydroxides, and hydrous oxide-silicate minerals in shallow and/or deep marine sedimentary systems. The Precambrian ironformations of southern Africa have a wide age range, but are more prominently developed before 1.SGa. These iron formations occur in greenstone belts of the Kaapvaal and Zimbabwean cratons, in the Limpopo mobile belt, in cratonic basins and in the Damara mobile belt. The Archaean-Proterozoic sedimentary basins and greenstone belts host iron ore deposits in iron-formation. Iron formations have a lengthy geological history. Most were subjected to intense, and on occasions repeated, tectonic and metamorphic episodes which also included metasomatic processes at times to produce supergene/hypogene high grade iron ores. Iron-formations may be enriched by diagenetic, and metamorphic processes to produce concentrating-grade ironformations. Uplift, weathering and denudation, have influenced the mineral association and composition of the ores, within which magnetite, haematite and goethite constitute the major ore minerals. The iron resources of the southern Africa region include the Sishen deposits, hosting to about 1200 Mt of high grade direct shipping ore, at >63% Fe. Deposits of Zimbabwe have more than 33 000 Mt of beneficiable iron-formation. The evaluation of an iron ore prospect involves many factors which must be individually assessed in order to arrive at an estimate of the probable profitability of the deposit. Many of these are geological and are inherent in the deposit itself. Other factors are inherent aspects of the environment in which the ore is formed. Although the geological character of the ore does not change, technological advances in the processing techniques may have a great effect on the cost of putting the ore into marketable form. Geochemical, geophysical and remote sensing methods would be used for regional exploration. Chip sampling and drilling are useful for detailed exploration. Purely geological exploration techniques are applicable on a prospect scale in the exploration of iron ore deposits. Regional exploration targeting should choose late Archaean greenstone belts containing oxide facies iron-formation or Early Proterozoic basins located at craton margins as they are both known to host high-grade haematite orebodies formed by supergene/hypogene enrichment. Most types of iron ore deposits in southern Africa are described and classified. An attempt is made to emphasize the major controls on mineralisation, in the hope that these may be applicable to exploration both in the southern African region and within analogous settings around the world.

Abstract:
The Early-Silurian Woodstock Fe-Mn Deposits are a series of six, northeasttrending, low grade manganiferous-iron deposits in western New Brunswick that collectively represent the largest Mn resource in North America (194,000,000 tonnes; 13% Fe and 9% Mn). Recent expansion of Route 95 has allowed a more detailed local stratigraphy, mineralogy, and geochemistry of the Fe-Mn deposits within the context of the regional stratigraphy to ascertain the genesis of these deposits. Geological mapping during the field seasons of 2008 and 2009 has revealed six Lithofacies Associations (O, I, II, III, IV, V) within the area, that, generally, are lying conformably on top of each other. However complications due to folding and interbedding have resulting in juxtaposition of the lithofacies associations so they are not always in stratigraphic order. These lithofacies associations are composed of a turbidite-rich section of blue grey calcareous sandstone (O) overlain by black pyritic mudstone (I), associated mineralized and nonmineralized green (II) and red siltstone (III), and laminated to massive grey green calcareous sandstone (IV and V). Na/Mg ratios, chondrite-normalized REE patterns, and mineralogical evidence of rapid changes in ocean redox conditions suggest the Fe-Mn mineralized lithofacies were formed in the offshore zone of a continental shelf on a stable cratonic margin. Al-Fe-Mn ternary and SiO2/Al2O3 binary plots developed from archived drill core data indicate the Fe-Mn mineralization was initially derived from hydrogenous-detrital sources without any indication of a hydrothermal input as a source of Fe and Mn.

Abstract:
The Haveri Au-Cu deposit is located in southern Finland about 175 km north of Helsinki. It occurs on the northern edge of the continental island arc-type, volcano-sedimentary Tampere Schist Belt (TSB) within the Palaeoproterozoic Svecofennian Domain (2.0 – 1.75 Ga) of the Fennoscandian Shield. The 1.99 Ga Haveri Formation forms the base of the supracrustal stratigraphy consisting of metavolcanic pillow lavas and breccias passing upwards into intercalated metatuffs and metatuffites. There is a continuous gradation upwards from the predominantly volcaniclastic Haveri Formation into the overlying epiclastic meta-greywackes of the Osara Formation. The Haveri deposit is hosted in this contact zone. This supracrustal sequence has been intruded concordantly by quartz-feldspar porphyries. Approximately 1.89 Ga ago, high crustal heat flow led to the generation and emplacement of voluminous synkinematic, I-type, magnetite-series granitoids of the Central Finland Granitoid Complex (CFGC), resulting in coeval high-T/low-P metamorphism (hornfelsic textures), and D₁ deformation. During the crystallisation and cooling of the granitoids, a magmatic-dominated hydrothermal system caused extensive hydrothermal alteration and Cu-Au mineralisation through the late-D₁ to early-D₂ deformation. Initially, a pre-ore Na-Ca alteration phase caused albitisation of the host rock. This was closely followed by strong Ca-Fe alteration, responsible for widespread amphibolitisation and quartz veining and associated with abundant pyrrhotite, magnetite, chalcopyrite and gold mineralisation. More localised calcic-skarn alteration is also present as zoned garnetpyroxene- epidote skarn assemblages with associated pyrrhotite and minor sphalerite, centred on quartzcalcite± scapolite veinlets. Post-ore alteration includes an evolution to more K-rich alteration (biotitisation). Late D₂-retrograde chlorite began to replace the earlier high-T assemblage. Late emanations (post-D₂ and pre-D₃) from the cooling granitoids, under lower temperatures and oxidising conditions, are represented by carbonate-barite veins and epidote veinlets. Later, narrow dolerite dykes were emplaced followed by a weak D₃ deformation, resulting in shearing and structural reactivation along the carbonate-barite bands. This phase was accompanied by pyrite deposition. Both sulphides and oxides are common at Haveri, with ore types varying from massive sulphide and/or magnetite, to networks of veinlets and disseminations of oxides and/or sulphides. Cataclastites, consisting of deformed, brecciated bands of sulphide, with rounded and angular clasts of quartz vein material and altered host-rock are an economically important ore type. Ore minerals are principally pyrrhotite, magnetite and chalcopyrite with lesser amounts of pyrite, molybdenite and sphalerite. There is a general progression from early magnetite, through pyrrhotite to pyrite indicating increasing sulphidation with time. Gold is typically found as free gold within quartz veins and within intense zones of amphibolitisation. Considerable gold is also found in the cataclastite ore type either as invisible gold within the sulphides and/or as free gold within the breccia fragments. The unaltered amphibolites of the Haveri Formation can be classified as medium-K basalts of the tholeiitic trend. Trace and REE support an interpretation of formation in a back-arc basin setting. The unaltered porphyritic rocks are calc-alkaline dacites, and are interpreted, along with the granitoids as having an arc-type origin. This is consistent with the evolution from an initial back-arc basin, through a period of passive margin and/or fore-arc deposition represented by the Osara Formation greywackes and the basal stratigraphy of the TSB, prior to the onset of arc-related volcanic activity characteristic of the TSB and the Svecofennian proper. Using a combination of petrogenetic grids, mineral compositions (garnet-biotite and hornblendeplagioclase thermometers) and oxygen isotope thermometry, peak metamorphism can be constrained to a maximum of approximately 600 °C and 1.5 kbars pressure. Furthermore, the petrogenetic grids indicate that the REDOX conditions can be constrained at 600°C to log f(O₂) values of approximately - 21.0 to -26.0 and -14.5 to -17.5 for the metasedimentary rocks and mafic metavolcanic rocks respectively, thus indicating the presence of a significant REDOX boundary. Amphibole compositions from the Ca-Fe alteration phase (amphibolitisation) indicate iron enrichment with increasing alteration corresponding to higher temperatures of formation. Oxygen isotope studies combined with limited fluid inclusion studies indicate that the Ca-Fe alteration and associated quartz veins formed at high temperatures (530 – 610°C) from low CO₂, low- to moderately saline (<10 eq. wt% NaCl), magmatic-dominated fluids. Fluid inclusion decrepitation textures in the quartz veins suggest isobaric decompression. This is compatible with formation in high-T/low-P environments such as contact aureoles and island arcs. The calcic-skarn assemblage, combined with phase equilibria and sphalerite geothermometry, are indicative of formation at high temperatures (500 – 600 °C) from fluids with higher CO₂ contents and more saline compositions than those responsible for the Fe-Ca alteration. Limited fluid inclusion studies have identified hypersaline inclusions in secondary inclusion trails within quartz. The presence of calcite and scapolite also support formation from CO₂-rich saline fluids. It is suggested that the calcic-skarn alteration and the amphibolitisation evolved from the same fluids, and that P-T changes led to fluid unmixing resulting in two fluid types responsible for the observed alteration variations. Chlorite geothermometry on retrograde chlorite indicates temperatures of 309 – 368 °C. As chlorite represents the latest hydrothermal event, this can be taken as a lower temperature limit for hydrothermal alteration and mineralisation at Haveri.The gold mineralisation at Haveri is related primarily to the Ca-Fe alteration. Under such P-T-X conditions gold was transported as chloride complexes. Ore was localised by a combination of structural controls (shears and folds) and REDOX reactions along the boundary between the oxidised metavolcanics and the reduced metasediments. In addition, fluid unmixing caused an increase in pH, and thus further augmented the precipitation of Cu and Au. During the late D₂-event, temperatures fell below 400 °C, and fluids may have remobilised Au and Cu as bisulphide complexes into the shearcontrolled cataclastites and massive sulphides. The Haveri deposit has many similarities with ore deposit models that include orogenic lode-gold deposits, certain Au-skarn deposits and Fe-oxide Cu-Au deposits. However, many characteristics of the Haveri deposit, including tectonic setting, host lithologies, alteration types, proximity to I-type granitoids and P-T-X conditions of formation, compare favourably with other Early Proterozoic deposits within the TSB and Fennoscandia, as well as many of the deposits in the Cloncurry district of Australia. Consequently, the Haveri deposit can be seen to represent a high-T, Ca-rich member of the recently recognised Fe-oxide Cu-Au group of deposits.

Abstract:
Actinide wastes involve actinide or rare earth–actinide fractions of high level waste (HLW), Pu-contaminated materials, including incinerator ashes, excess weapons plutonium, and some wastes formed during plutonium conversion in MOX fuel and nuclear accidents. SIA Radon in cooperation with Vernadsky Institute of Geochemistry, Institute of Geology of Ore Deposits, and D. Mendeleev University of Chemical Technology deals with development and testing of actinide waste forms and preparation methods. Zirconolite, pyrochlore, and murataite are considered as host phases for plutonium and other actinides. Two-phase ceramics based on zirconolite-perovskite, pyrochlore-perovskite, perovskite–cubic zirconia-based solid solution, murataite-perovskite, and zirconolite-murataite assemblages were designed for incorporation of actinide and rare earth–actinide fractions of HLW. Glass-ceramics containing apatite-britholite phases have been proposed for incinerator ash fixation. All these matrices have high chemical durability and radiation stability. The most promising method for production of these waste forms is an inductive melting in a cold crucible. Cold pressing and sintering technology is considered as alternative route. Mechanical activation intensifies ceramization process and reduces sintering temperature. Some new methods such as selfsustaining synthesis and plasma melting are being also examined.
