Abstract Zn-Pb-Ag mineral deposits are the products of hydrothermal ore-forming systems,
which are restricted in time and space. In Australia, these deposits formed during three main …

Australia is host to a diverse range of rare earth element (REE) ore deposits, and therefore is
well placed to be a major supplier of REE into the future. This paper presents a review of the …

Many diverse ore systems are classified together as iron oxide copper-gold (IOCG) deposits
based on an empirical definition arising primarily from geochemical features that do not …

There are six distinct classes of gold deposits, each represented by metallogenic provinces,
having 100's to> 1000 tonne gold production. The deposit classes are:(1) orogenic gold;(2) …

The magnetite-apatite deposits (“Kiruna-type”) and the iron oxide-Cu-Au deposits form end
members of a continuum. In general the magnetite-apatite deposits form prior to the copper …

This paper presents a plate tectonic model for the evolution of the Australian continent
between ca. 1800 and 1100Ma. Between ca. 1800 and 1600Ma episodic orogenesis …

The evolution of the Australian plate can be interpreted in a plate‐tectonic paradigm in
which lithospheric growth occurred via vertical and horizontal accretion. The lithospheric …

There are six distinct classes of gold deposits, each represented by metallogenic provinces
having hundreds to more than 1,000 tonnes (t) gold production. These deposit classes are …

Zircon U‐Pb SHRIMP ages and crustal Sm‐Nd signatures are reported for metasediments,
meta‐volcanics, and a variety of pre‐and post‐tectonic granitoid intrusives in the Eastern …

The concentrations of trace elements in apatite from granitoid rocks of the Mt Isa Inlier have
been investigated using the laser‐ablation inductively coupled plasma‐mass spectrometry …
