Download or read book Betts Cove Ophiolite and Its Cover Rocks Newfoundland written by Jean H. Bédard and published by Natural Resources Canada. This book was released on 2000 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Betts Cove area of the Baie Verte Peninsula, northern Newfoundland, is of interest for its mineral exploration history and for its ophiolitic complex formed through sea floor spreading. This study attempts to resolve some of the unresolved problems related to the area's stratigraphy, the magmatic affinity of its plutonic section, and the geologic controls on ore deposition. The report presents a revised stratigraphy for the area; a petrologic description of the rock units of the Betts Cove ophiolite, Snooks Arm Group, adjoining ophiolitic rocks, and post-Ordovician rocks; a history of structural deformation in the area; information on mineral chemistry, geochemistry, and petrogenesis; and tectonic models illustrating the evolution of the ophiolite and its cover rocks. The final section describes mineral deposits & occurrences in the area, including historic volcanogenic copper/sulphide mines, the currently producing Nugget Pond mine, and various gold occurrences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arc-continent collision has been one of the important tectonic processes in the formation of mountain belts throughout geological time, and it continues to be so today along tectonically active plate boundaries such as those in the SW Pacific or the Caribbean. Arc-continent collision is thought to have been one of the most important process involved in the growth of the continental crust over geological time, and may also play an important role in its recycling back into the mantle via subduction. Understanding the geological processes that take place during arc-continent collision is therefore of importance for our understanding of how collisional orogens evolve and how the continental crust grows or is destroyed. Furthermore, zones of arc-continent collision are producers of much of the worlds primary economic wealth in the form of minerals, so understanding the processes that take place during these tectonic events is of importance in modeling how this mineral wealth is formed and preserved. This book brings together seventeen papers that are dedicated to the investigation of the tectonic processes that take place during arc-continent collision. It is divided into four sections that deal firstly with the main players involved in any arc-continent collision; the continental margin, the subduction zone, and finally the volcanic arc and its mineral deposits. The second section presents eight examples of arc-continent collisions that range from being currently active through to Palaeoproterozoic in age. The third section contains two papers, one that deals with the obduction of large-slab ophiolites and a second that presents a wide range of physical models of arc-continent collision. The fourth section brings everything that comes before together into a discussion of the processes of arc-continent collision.

Download or read book Metal Deposits in Relation to Plate Tectonics written by Frederick J. Sawkins and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 677 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book metal deposits, in particular those of non-ferrous and precious metals, are classified and analyzed in terms of their plate tectonic settings. This approach allows a meaningful treatment of metal deposits of different types and provides significant insights into both their genesis and formative environments. The updated 2nd edition incorporates the most significant advances in economic geology of the last 5 years. Particular attention is paid to the geological settings and generative models of gold deposits of all kinds.

Download or read book Mineral Deposits of North Africa written by Mohammed Bouabdellah and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-06-21 with total page 585 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents an exhaustive overview of major orebodies and mineral deposits of North Africa. It is intended both for academic researchers and especially for exploration geologists interested in mineral exploration in the northern part of the African continent. Recent changes in the mining laws of most countries in this region have encouraged international mining companies to invest in local mineral industries. Accordingly, this volume will be very useful for these professionals, as well as for researchers in the field of economic geology.

Download or read book The Role of Halogens in Terrestrial and Extraterrestrial Geochemical Processes written by Daniel E. Harlov and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-01-30 with total page 1029 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book summarizes the knowledge and experiences concerning the role of halogens during various geochemical processes, such as diagenesis, ore-formation, magma evolution, metasomatism, mineralization, and metamorphism in the crust and mantle of the Earth. It comprises the role of halogens in other terrestrial worlds like volatile-rich asteroids, Mars, and the ice moons of Jupiter and Saturn. Review chapters outline and expand upon the basis of our current understanding regarding how halogens contribute to the geochemical/geophysical evolution and stability of terrestrial worlds overall.
