Disentangling intense weathering profile evolution in Western Australia: Insights from REE geochemistry and neodymium stable isotopes

Weathering processes can facilitate rare earth element (REE) enrichment and ore formation; however, exploration models are often not representative of deeply and intensely weathered landscapes (e.g., Australia, India and Brazil). Mobility of REE has traditionally been traced thro...

Deformation-enhanced fluid evolution and skarn–IOCG transition in the Paleoproterozoic Elaine Dorothy Cu–Au system, Mount Isa Inlier, Australia

Abstract The Elaine Dorothy Cu-Au deposit, located in the Mary Kathleen Domain of the Mount Isa Inlier, Australia, records the interaction of Paleoproterozoic skarn metasomatism, fluid evolution, and deformation. The deposit is hosted by carbonate- and calc-silicate-rich rocks of...
