High nickel content is found in the orthogneisses that underly the volcanics. This gneiss corresponds to a sediment in younger or less metamorphosed regimes. The same gneiss runs from the Labrador Shore on the St. Lawrence through Voisey's Bay to Ungava Bay.

Sulphur source here is mainly the sediments. The gneiss is too far south or too far deep. Maybe it play a role for the southernmost sills at the base (south) of the Cape Smith belt, but none of KNP or CZZ is so far south.

But you know JP, there's many unmineralized (<0.5% sulphides)ultramafic in touch with the sediments.
