I do not look at it with the same eye than you are. When looking at the core photographs, it looks to me as a typical komatiitic magmatic segregation Ni-Cu deposit. We all know how these deposits form. One need ultramafic rock (which contains nickel ) and suphur. And usually, the size of the deposit is related with the volume of ultramafic rock (which control the volume of available nickel). This volcanic belt is not very large. Which means that the volume of ultramafic within it may not be very large too which means also the available amount of nickel may be limited. So, the size of the deposit may be limited too. Exactly like at lac Rocher or Marbridge or many other Abitibi belt deposits! JP
