By implementing a series of mass-conserving nested high-resolution models down to approximately 1 km resolution that have realistic bathymetry, coastline, wind forcing and river run-off, the winter 1996-1997 shelf flow near Cape Mendocino, California, is simulated and compared with available observations from the Strata Formation on Margins (STRATAFORM) marine geology...
Typical porphyry-type Cu-Mo mineralization predates and underlies the well-known
Main Stage polymetallic veins of the Butte district, Montana. This thesis presents the
first systematic study of the isotopic characteristics of the pre-Main Stage K-silicate and
sericitic wallrock alteration related to the porphyry Cu-Mo stage.
Oxygen and hydrogen isotopic compositions were...
