Seismic imaging of the complex geological structures in the southwestern edge of the Western limb, Bushveld Complex through focusing pre‐stack depth migration of legacy 2D seismic data

open access: yesGeophysical Prospecting, Volume 72, Issue 7, Page 2504-2519, September 2024.
Abstract We reprocessed a 50‐km long legacy 2D reflection seismic profile acquired in 1986, under a project funded by the National Geophysics Program to improve the delineation of complex geological structures that host the platinum‐bearing horizons (known as the UG2 reef; a chromitite horizon) on the south‐eastern edge of the Western limb of the ...

Exploration for magmatic Ni-Cu-PGE sulphide deposits : a review of recent advances in the use of geochemical tools, and their application to some South African ores [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Most major magmatic Cu-Ni-PGE sulphide deposits are thought to have formed by segregation of an immiscible sulphide melt from a silicate host magma, in response to processes such as magma mixing, rapid cooling, differentiation, and contamination.

Multi‐geophysical methods for characterizing fractures in an open pit mine, western Bushveld Complex, South Africa

open access: yesGeophysical Prospecting, Volume 72, Issue 5, Page 1950-1970, June 2024.
Abstract In the Bushveld Complex, South Africa, open pit mines are faced with a challenge of rock slope stability due to geological structures (fractures, faults and dykes) that compartmentalize the rock mass. Geophysical surveys (seismics, magnetics and electrical methods) were conducted in a 0.2 km2 area at Tharisa mine, with the goal to delineate ...

Formation and evolution of the chromitites of the Stillwater Complex : a trace element study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Large layered intrusions, such as the Stillwater Complex, contain cyclic units of chromite-rich layers (cm to m thick) having kilometre-scale lateral extension.

A shallow origin for diamonds in ophiolitic chromitites

open access: yesGeology, 2018
Recent findings of diamonds in ophiolitic peridotites and chromitites challenge our traditional notion of Earth mantle dynamics. Models attempting to explain these findings involve incorporation of diamonds into chromite near the mantle transition zone. However, the occurrence of metastable diamonds in this context has not been considered.

Phlogopite and Hornblende in the Contact Metamorphosed Ultramafic Complex at Yanomine, Sangun Metamorphic Zone, Japan [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Phlogopite and hornblende were found in amall amounts in the contact-metamorphosed dunite-harzburgite complex at Yanomine. Phlogopite occurs in interstices of silicate minerals in dunite and harzburgite located near the contact with granite.
