No doubt Vaughn will give you a better explanation later but if you read his post 1442 and 1731 you will get a better idea of what he is refering to.
You have the Nain gabbro/troctolite sitting on top of the Churchill basement gneiss. Holes 67 and 75 hit the massive sulphides above the contact and hole 66 hit a massive band of mineralization below the contact.
What does this mean.
Maybe the gabbro/troctolite cut through a sulphide zone or maybe the sulphides got remobilized into the gneisses.
Maybe they are related, maybe not, which came first the chicken or the egg.
At Voiseys Bay the sulphides settled at the bottom of the troctolite.
These are a couple of many explanations and without all the drill hole logs etc it is difficult to say.
Hope this helps your project
