Development and application of the Re-Os isotope system to sediment-hosted Zn-Pb ores and sedimentary pore waters
DownloadFall 2018
The rhenium-osmium (Re-Os) isotopic system is used to determine the age of, and trace the origins of, minerals and fluids found within the Earth's crust. This thesis focuses on application of Re-Os geochronology and isotope systematics to sulphide minerals from carbonate-hosted Zn-Pb ore...

Geochronology and Trace Element Characteristics of Pyrite from Selected Carbonate Hosted Pb-Zn Ore Deposits
DownloadFall 2012
Carbonate-hosted ore deposits, such as Mississippi Valley-type (MVT), and Irish-type deposits, are a major class of Pb-Zn ores. Due to the mineralogy of these deposits, numerical constraints on the timing of mineralization are few. This thesis investigates pyrite Re-Os geochronology for dating...
