Magmatic Ni-Cu-PGE Deposits

Magmatic Ni-Cu-PGE Deposits: a two day workshop to be presented by Dr Michael Lesher, Dr Steve Barnes and Dr James Mungall in Perth W.A., arranged by Geoscientists Symposia, CSIRO and AIG.

The course will present:

• an overview of the tectonic, geological, volcanological and petrochemical settings associated with these deposits;
• review of critical theoretical constraints including mantle melting, metal partitioning and mass balance;
• physical processes and fluid dynamics;
• tenor and mineralogy of disseminated ores;
• case studies of well-characterised systems.

The workshop will be of interest to graduate students and exploration geologists who want an update on this deposit class and exposure to some of the detailed work that has been done on these deposits globally.

The workshop circular provides further information, including profiles of the presenters and registration information.
