Petrology and geochemistry of the Emigrant Pass volcanics, Nevada : implications for a magmatic-hydrothermal origin of the Carlin gold deposits

Creator:

Johnson, Curtis L.

Abstract:

The Emigrant Pass volcanics (EPV) are a 38.3 to 36.4 Ma calc-alkaline volcanic center that erupted andesite and dacite, and a late series of felsic dikes along the south flank of the Carlin gold district in north-central Nevada. The EPV includes dacite and rhyolite porphyry dikes indistinguishable from porphyry dikes...
