Abstract: | This report describes in detail mineral deposits on the Purnamoota-Yalcowinna 1:50,000 map sheet area, northern Broken Hill Block, Willyama Complex, Australia. Information gathered from fieldwork and published and unpublished reports has been synthesized to describe the distribution, nature and possible origins of the mineral deposits. Deposit types include many widely distributed throughout the Broken Hill Block, e.g. Broken Hill and Thackaringa types, as well as several not previously recognized or described in the literature. Stratiform and stratabound deposits containing lead, silver, zinc, copper, tungsten, gold and arsenic are described. Vein deposits, typically with a dominant siderite or quartz gangue, contain commodities including lead, silver, zinc, copper and gold. Tin and tungsten bearing pegmatites are also described. Stratigraphic associations of stratiform and stratabound mineralization and the relationships and distribution of vein and stratigraphically controlled mineralization are discussed. |
