Trace element chemistry of sulfides and quartz, in situ sulfur isotope values of sulfides, cathodoluminescence of quartz, fluid inclusion microthermometry and raman, and radiogenic isotope and whole rock geochemistry from the Stibnite-Yellow Pine district
This dataset is a collection of geochemical data on samples from the Stibnite-Yellow Pine district of Idaho. The datasets include: whole rock geochemistry; lead, strontium and neodymium isotope chemistry of sulfides and whole rock samples by isotope dilution-thermal-mass spectrometry (ID-TIMS); in situ sulfur isotope chemistry of sulfides by laser ablation-multi collector-inductively coupled-mass spectrometry (LA-MC-ICP-MS); electron microprobe (EMP) images, cathodoluminescence (CL) images and spectra, along with EMP and laser ablation-inductively coupled-mass spectrometry (LA-ICP-MS) trace element analysis of sulfides and quartz; and fluid inclusion microthermometry and raman. Samples were collected from the surface and from a series of drill holes transecting the Yellow Pine, Hangar Flats, and West End deposits within the district. Sample were submitted for USGS contract laboratory analysis and processed for ID-TIMS isotopic analysis. High-contrast backscattered electron (BSE) scanning electron microscope SEM imaging were collected to determine zonation, followed by of EMP analysis, followed by a selection of LA-ICP-MS and LA-MC-ICP-MS analysis. After determining mineral and fluid inclusion paragenesis by studying optical petrography and SEM imagery, fluid inclusion microthermometric data and raman spectra were collected.
