  • I found some more B-Veins and these ones had an interesting story to tell about the intrusion that was thought to be their source.
    This video is an episode of "Outcrop of the Day" from my Fieldcraft for Geologists series.

      Thanks Vitor. The great thing about geology is that it has an endless supply of mysteries to be solved.

      @@cribbsprojects There is no ore vein in the US you are just going to walk up to, to find economical metal anything. What you do is not run around to find any vein system. You pan the washes at the base of the mountains and save yourself all that energy. If you find a drainage with anything, you work up the drainage until it stops.

      Teaching is precisely my aim! I can't go to every prospect in every country, but there is an army of young enthusiastic geologists out there who are keen to go out and find their own deposit. With the right tools, they will succeed :)

      @@GeologyUpSkill Ore bodies over time are lower grade consecutively. The days of ounces per ton gold in a US deposit have been over for 75 years. We are now down to parts-per-million which means core drilling, assaying for tens of millions of dollars. The lone prospector here would be looking for small turquoise deposits, studying pegmatites for gems in certain regions, specialty collectable mineral specimens, crystals. Diggin in a Calico class silver vein system some years ago in a jasperoid, you can be assured I never crushed one stone for gold. I cut it up into cabochons for jewelry, set in silver sells for $150 a cab due to banding and pretty barite blade inclusions, while the gold content is maybe 1/4 penny. Mineral collectible specimens are much more valuable by weight.

      On the contrary. High grade discoveries are being made on a weekly basis. Here is just one example www.linkedin.com/posts/minerdeck_weekly-gold-drilling-highlights-credits-activity-7045028120034168833-yW9D?

    Hello Nick, I would like to add that each PCD system is a "World" and there is no doubt that the veinlet classification helps a lot in the evaluation of these systems; but those B veinlets are not the classic ones. A more classic veinlet is one that has quartz crystals (comb) and straighter walls, those look more sinuous. I have doubts if they are transitional between veinlets A and B or is it due to the deformation that affected the area?

    • @GeologyUpSkill
      @GeologyUpSkill  Рік тому

      The veins you describe with comb textured quartz sound similar to the original D veins of Gustafson and Hunt (which commonly represent the ore phase). The trouble is that those textures are not unique to porphyry deposits so they are not as diagnostic as the B veins. The great thing about South Korea is that there has been almost no compressional deformation since the Cretaceous so you can be sure that sinuous shapes are exactly as they formed.

      Unfortunately the ASX rules around JORC reporting (and client confidentiality) prevent me from saying, but you can make an educated guess if you search the literature.
