Proof positive cont.
January 13, 1998
Yesterday I posted a thread under "A Little Forum for Microclusters" entitled Proof Positive. I am sorry that after I thought about what I said in that lengthy post, that I left some DD situations out. In that post I talked about the mines of the future and their relationships to lineaments. I left out the Hugh Abercrombie model which is not related directly to lineaments.. These deposits are developed in large geological basins covering thousands of square miles. In these, the salt from an entrapped ancient brackish sea deposits values from low grade brines into specific hosts. The gold and PGM deposits in the Mancos (American Goldfields and others) and the Craig Colorado deposits fall under this category as well as the Athebaska deposits of Agau resources and the Alberta deposits of Birch Mountain near Ft McKay. The later deposits also coincide with a lineament. The non-lineament deposits are probably going to have multiple products but will not likely be important for much more than the precious metals.
Another deposit group of cluster resources are the much smaller cinder cone volcanic plug deposits and the Moonstone rhyolites. The Moonstone rhyolites in Idaho are related to an East West lineament and a very large volcanic eruption that was not followed by hydrothermal activity. The cluster deposits were probably from gaseous venting activity shortly after the eruption. I do not think the cinder cones will have multiple metals production and the Moonstone deposits may be more diversely enriched. mike
