Meadowbank Gold Mineralization
The deposits show seven styles of sulfide mineralization that are grouped according to their relationship to the major deformation phases.
Pre-D2 includes four styles of gold mineralization.
1) Early pyrrhotite replacement in oxide facies BIF along S1
2) Early pyrite replacement in oxide facies BIF along S1
3) Early, deformed, pyrrhotite bearing polymetallic S1 quartz veins in BIF and IV
4) Early, deformed, pyrite-rich, vuggy S1 quartz veins in BIF and IV
