Micro- to nano-scale analyses for understanding gold paragenesis in metamorphosed banded iron formations north of Rankin Inlet, Nunavut / T.W. Matterson, D.C. Petts, D. Regis, D.E. Moser and J. Czas. : M183-2/9232E-PDF

"The geology surrounding the Meliadine and Meadowbank gold mines, north of Rankin Inlet, NU has been mapped extensively, but the area northeast of Meliadine has not been studied in great detail, and there is little known about precious metal deportment and mobility in potential ore-bearing units such as Banded Iron Formation (BIF). Here we present our first results analysing precious metal deportment (e.g. Au and Ag) using micro-XRF and LA-ICP-MS in BIF samples collected during GSC-UWO regional mapping (GEM-GeoNorth) east of Meliadine in Summer 2023. This information will be useful in determining variations in precious metal mineralization, including metals associated with critical minerals, within this region and developing a stronger understanding of the evolution of BIF"--Background, page [1].
