The secret ingredients for CRD's:
A
A
Fluid source (Intrusive stock/porphyry)
☐ Currently undiscovered for the IC district
Permissive carbonate host rocks for replacement
>400 m of dolostone at IC
•
>600 m of dolostone at WPC
Plumbing (faults) for the mineralized fluids
WPC fault, Warm Springs fault (target), and
IC fault
Cap rock to concentrate the fluids
3 cap rocks in district: 2 schists (WPC) and
greenstone (IC)
How are CRD's formed?
The mineralizing fluids coming from the intrusive stock
(source/porphyry) are very hot and acidic. The metals are
transported in this fluids along faults, following the path of
least resistance. When the hot, acidic fluid interacts with
the basic carbonate rocks, an acid neutralization reaction
occurs (think baking soda and vinegar), which causes the
metals to deposit as sulfides and causes the system to
self-stope, creating km-scale mineralized bodies
