Mn-rich ilmenite from the Sullivan Pb-Zn-Ag deposit, British Columbia
January 1, 1996
Electron-microprobe analyses of 76 ilmenite grains from 13 locations in the footwall, hanging wall, and ore zone of the Sullivan Pb-Zn-Ag deposit, Kimberley, British Columbia, and from regionally developed tourmalinite of the Middle Proterozoic Aldridge Formation show two different modes that reflect two stages of formation. The first stage of ilmenite formation occurred as a result of greenschist-facies regional metamorphism, which also produced the associated Mn-rich garnet. Ilmenite from this stage forms inclusions within garnet and has a relatively low Mn content (
