Indicator mineral content of bedrock from the Mount Pleasant Sn-W-Mo-Bi-In deposit, New Brunswick / [by] M.B. McClenaghan ... [et al.].: M183-2/7721E-PDF
A study of indicator minerals in bedrock was carried out at the Mount Pleasant Sn-W-Mo-Bi-In deposit, in New Brunswick. This study was conducted as part of the Geological Survey of Canada’s (GSC) Targeted Geoscience Initiative 4 (TGI-4). It included mineralogical identification of polished thin sections and of heavy mineral concentrates produced from disaggregated bedrock samples. Indicator minerals identified in bedrock samples include the main ore minerals, cassiterite, molybdenite and sphalerite, as well as chalcopyrite, pyrite, galena, arsenopyrite, fluorite, and topaz. Although the deposit is well known for its wolframite content, it was not found in any of the rocks examined in this study. This absence is likely due to the small number of bedrock samples examined in this study.
