These late brittle faults are generally steeply west dipping reverse faults with a series of moderately west dipping reverse splay faults formed in the footwall of the main fault. There are also moderately east dipping faults which have become more significant footwall to the anticlinal offsets along the west dipping faults. Primary gold mineralization occurs as disseminated arsenopyrite and pyrite forming as a selvage to veins in a quartz–carbonate veinlet stockwork. The mineralization is structurally controlled with high-grade zones localized by the geometric relationship between bedding and faulting. Mineralized shoots are typically 4m to 15m thick, 50m to 150m up/down dip and 300m to 1,500m+ down plunge, and have average grades of 5 10 g/t Au, with individual assays up to 60 g/t Au.
Mega does this sound like gabros and vugs to you? IKE
What is it with you guys and the gabbros? NFG isn't up in Labrador drilling for nickel. Lol
Good comparison of geology below. The Rock Doctor says they are finding the gold in dirty old ocean floor sentiments. Greywacke is what they call it. Of course there is other host rocks as well.
