Abstract | Mississippi Valley-type (MVT) and clastic-dominated (CD) deposits are important sources for Zn, Pb, Ag, and Cd, as well as the critical elements Ga, Ge, In and Sb. However, mapping the drivers, sources,
pathways and traps of MVT and CD deposits within the much larger and mostly unmineralized sedimentary basins remain some of the least understood aspects of these mineral systems. Herein, we address these knowledge gaps by integrating public
geoscience datasets from Canada, the United States of America and Australia using a discrete global grid system to map the continent-scale footprints of MVT and CD deposits. |
Summary | (Plain Language Summary, not published) The current study was completed as part of the Critical Mineral Mapping Initiative (CMMI) between the Geological Survey of Canada (GSC), the United
States Geological Survey (USGS), and Geoscience Australia (GA). Extended abstract reports some of the preliminary prospectivity modelling results completed as part of CMMI. |
