- Abstract
- "Wallrock alteration associated with the world-class, vein-gold deposits of the Bendigo goldfield is more extensive than has been previously documented. Alteration is characterised by the development of a pervasive and extensive carbonate alteration halo, as well as a somewhat lesser sulphide alteration halo. Alteration features observed resulted from the passage of large volumes of hydrothermal fluids over a protracted period, with alteration features being centred on major structures that acted as the main fluid conduits. The location and history of the evolution of these structures was a dominant control on the location, intensity and extent of wallrock alteration developed."; Master of Engineering Science
